“It means, my dear, that even though you have not traveled far, you have found yourself a very long way from home.”
After the unexplained disappearance of her sister, Seralynn O’Hare discovers a small, overgrown cemetery hidden in the forest on her family’s generational homestead.
Coping with mounting grief, she becomes its dutiful caretaker, unaware it will open doors that have remained closed for centuries.
After arriving in Avallon, a realm where myth and magic reign, she meets Fadrial and his father, Tobian. Offering shelter, they share tales about the land, its turbulent history, and the murderous atrocities committed by Asmodeus.
He is the most powerful of all creatures known to Avallon — and the most dangerous — obliging Seralynn to stay within the walls of Tobian’s castle until she might find a way to return home.
Before she can, however, she sets out into the forest alone, a decision that changes her fate in ways she could never have imagined.
Caught between two vendettas whose origins unravel everything Seralynn thought she knew about herself, the depths of true love—and great loss, she must learn who to trust as she faces an adversary who will stop at nothing to obtain the most powerful weapon imaginable:
Her own flesh and blood.
