Ashes of Deceit

Not suitable for tweens.

Jorick promised Katelina a tropical escape. Instead, they're dragged into a bloody mission to rescue a captured vampire. But who helped the humans take him? The question ignites a brutal coven war with deadly consequences.

In the wake of the horror, a serial killer emerges, butchering covens. The attacks appear random, but the Vampire Guild sees a pattern-one that points straight at Jorick and Katelina. Arrested and hauled to the Citadel, they find themselves trapped in the grasp of Malick: the ancient master who sired Jorick and holds the power of life and death.

With Oren's rebellion closing in on the Citadel, the flames of war erupt against a backdrop of confused loyalties. In a game orchestrated by monsters, survival demands a price-and some fires leave nothing behind but ash.
