Publisher's Synopsis
With their King Dead, Ari and her coven of vampires flee Sumeria to the fertile lands of Egypt to aid Sephre in attaining his rightful title as Pharaoh. The darkness that allowed Ari to overpower Ashurhassan has awoken something dark and vile inside her, something that places human and vampire alike in grave danger. She has little regard for life and even less toward those who do not bend to her will. As her darkness is unleashed, and the humans become her pawns, few will survive her wrath. With the balance between two worlds hanging dangerously close to destruction, Drake and Ari's family must find a way to save their Queen, protect the humans who surround her, and ensure Ari survives her own darkness so the prophecy can be fulfilled. Two thousand years pass in the blink of an eye while Ari struggles with not only her darkness but with the love she holds in her heart for both Drake and Uriah while ruling an ever growing and dangerous vampire nation.
