They called it the Thorn Hill Massacre—the brutal attack on
a once-thriving Weir community. Though Jonah Kinlock lived
through it, he did not emerge unscathed: like the other
survivors Jonah possesses unique magical gifts that set him
apart from members of the mainline guilds. At seventeen,
Jonah has become the deadliest assassin in Nightshade, a
network that hunts the undead. Emma Claire Greenwood grew up
worlds away, raised by a grandfather who taught her music
rather than magic. An unschooled wild child, she runs the
streets until the night she finds her grandfather dying,
gripping a note warning Emma that she might be in danger.
The clue he leaves behind leads Emma into Jonah's life—and a
shared legacy of secrets and lingering questions. Was Thorn
Hill really a peaceful commune? Or was it, as the Wizard
Guild claims, a hotbed of underguild terrorists? The
Wizards' suspicions grow when members of the mainline guilds
start turning up dead. They blame Nightshade, bringing
tensions between the groups to a head. Racing against time,
Jonah and Emma work to uncover the truth about Thorn Hill,
amid increasing concern that whoever planned the Thorn Hill
Massacre might strike again.
