''Zoey, what is is?'' Stark said softly. I didn''t answer
Stark. Instead I faced Neferet. Somewhere in the back of my mind I
could hear the buzz and whispers of the kids around me, and I knew
forcing a confrontation with Neferet here and now wasn''t smart. But
I couldn''t stop myself...Zoey is finally home where she belongs,
safe with her Guardian Warrior, Stark, by her side, and preparing
to face off against Neferet - which would be a whole lot easier if
the High Counsel saw the ex-High Priestess for what she really is.
But there are new forces at work at the House of Night. An influx
of humans threatens their precarious stability. And then there''s
the mysterious Aurox, a jaw-droppingly gorgeous boy who is actually
more - or possibly less - than human. Only Zoey can sense the
compassion that wars with his Dark calling. Will Neferet''s true
nature be revealed before she succeeds in silencing them all? And
will Zoey be able to touch Aurox''s humanity in time to protect him
- and everyone - from his own fate?
