Sequel to A Pale Shade of Night. Lord Voldemort throws Britain into chaos and courts madness in his desire for immortality. With the Order crumbling and Darkness swelling on the Continent, a bitter soul hunter takes matters in her own clawed hands.

The Dark Lord's quest for immortality has led him to the extremes of Dark magic. Essential to his plans are human souls for experimentation, and the soul hunter that provides them.
