Für die drei geht es auf den Friedhof - während Spin sich darauf vorbereitet, ans Tageslicht zu treten.

Misery Lark, fille du conseiller vampyre le plus puissant du Sud-Ouest, est une paria. Les jours où elle vivait dans l’anonymat parmi les humains sont désormais derrière elle : on a fait appel à elle pour renforcer une alliance historique afin de maintenir la paix entre les vampyres et leurs ennemis mortels, les loups-garous, et elle n’a guère d’autre choix que d’obéir. Les loups-garous sont impitoyables et imprévisibles, et leur alpha, Lowe Moreland, ne fait pas exception à la règle. Sa manière de la regarder, de suivre le moindre de ses mouvements, montre clairement qu’il n’a aucune confiance en elle.

The handsome playboy with more one-night stands than the local motel happens to be my childhood sweetheart. In his mind, I’m the one that got away. Right, buddy.

Serve the Family at all costs. That’s my purpose in life. No one asked me if I wanted it. Now there’s no way out. And there’s definitely no place for Jake, a do-gooder military vet who sticks his nose in where it doesn’t belong. He thinks he saw darkness in the Army? He hasn’t looked at the depths inside me.

No one betrays the Family and lives.
