Aulunla's end marks a new chapter in Liadain's life as a Keeper.

Far from offering her the power and safety she hoped for, Liadain's bizarre insights into the minds and methods of Harbingers leave her less certain of her path to immortality than ever. Spurred by the revelation of just how inextricably bound her deadly illness is to her magic, she takes her most terrifying step into her new life yet—asking another Keeper for help.

But what she's learned and what she's done follow her like ghosts. Meanwhile, Aulunla's witch spirals further into her own world-twisting obsession.

In seeking answers that can only be found in the dark, they both find themselves blind beneath the callous gaze of the Sun.
