The veil has been broken. Her dreams have been tampered with. Strange animals appear and disappear, leaving Katharine to wonder if she’s slowly going insane. But it is the appearance of the beast that finally makes her truly afraid. Gabriel needs Katharine in order to advance; Allistair needs her to save himself from ruin. Each sent from the other side, each fighting for a cause, they are at war with each other–and with Katharine herself. Katharine slowly learns that far more than her own sanity is at stake, and that she is the pawn the sides are warring over. The key piece in a game she cannot comprehend, she watches helplessly as her carefully constructed beliefs fail, one by one. Refusing to be the victim of things she can only sometimes see and touch, Katharine gathers herself to fight back. Can she stand against the forces she is only beginning to understand, or are there things completely out of her control?
