Faith fractured. Soul on the line. Forty-eight hours to set it right.
Excommunicated from the Order of the Four, Cassidy Kain once hunted the unholy monsters that slip from the Nether Realm into Denver's shadows. Now the city's fae-daemon kingpin-the Shining Man-drags her back into the fight: destroy a newly forged Daemonrie Chimera and deliver the rogue agent who created it within forty-eight hours... or forfeit the soul Cassidy can't bear to lose: her troubled teen sister, Tansy.
But the Chimera is no ordinary monster. It's stitched from the stolen soul of a girl Cassidy failed to save and Tansy, and set loose by the one person who knows how to break her: her former best friend turned traitor. To stop it, Cassidy must walk a gauntlet of unholy bargains and shifting alliances. And cross lines she swore she never would.
Haunted by guilt and clinging to an unraveling faith, Cassidy will do anything to redeem what she's lost-even if the price is her own soul. As the clock runs down and the city teeters on the edge of chaos, she faces an impossible choice: kill the sister she loves or allow more innocent souls to be lost forever.
