“What other power was there?”
“Oh, more than you could ever know.”

Book Excerpt
Chapter 42, Page 248
Nothing seemed resolved, and nothing seemed right. It all felt—wrong. Everything was out of place—altered in some way. Nothing was right, and everything was wrong. Something was still going on, in the shadows. How did Lazerus know? He didn’t—he just felt it. He felt it in his bones, in his head, in his heart. His heart was giddy, though not with excitement. Almost like the feeling he got around Serena, yet much, much more sinister.
