Dreading a confrontation with the Murder's mind-reading vampires since her Halloween tryst with their King, Mary is surprised to see Lucas, leader of the Murder's werewolves and Sebastian's second in command, sent by the King to fetch her home. To obtain her agreement, Lucas bears a bribe -- temporary Crow status for one mission.

This is her only chance to prove she has the cleverness to battle the rogues of their world. To prove she has enough talent and skill to stand at their side. But her test demands a heavy price of blood, pain and sacrifice. Will her relationship with the Murder King survive it?
