Seven years ago, the Veil that separates humanity from what
lies beyond was
torn apart, and New Orleans was engulfed in a supernatural
war. Now, those
with paranormal powers have been confined in a walled
community that
humans call the District. Those who live there call it
Devil's Isle.
Claire Connolly is a good girl with a dangerous secret:
she’s a Sensitive, a
human endowed with magic that seeped through the Veil.
Claire knows that
revealing her skills would mean being confined to Devil’s
Isle. Unfortunately,
hiding her power has left her untrained and unfocused.
Liam Quinn knows from experience that magic makes monsters
of the weak,
and he has no time for a Sensitive with no control of her
own strength. But
when he sees Claire using her powers to save a human under
attack—in full
view of the French Quarter—Liam decides to bring her to
Devil’s Isle and the
teacher she needs, even though getting her out of his way
isn’t the same as
keeping her out of his head.
But when the Veil threatens to shatter completely, Claire
and Liam must work
together to stop it, or else New Orleans will burn…
