In a job like this, one mistake can cost you everything.
As a Shadowchaser, Kira Solomon has been trained to serve
the Light, dispatch the Fallen, and prevent the spread of
chaos. It's a deadly job, and Kira knows the horror of
spilling innocent blood. But now she has a new role, as the
Hand of Ma'at, the Egyptian Goddess of Truth and Order, and
an assignment that might just redeem her.
A fellow Shadowchaser has gone missing, and so has a unique
artifact imbued with astonishing magic. Unless the Vessel of
Nun is returned, it will cause destruction beyond anything
the modern world has seen. Kira's got a team at her back,
including Khefar, a near-immortal Nubian warrior who's
already died for her once. But as complicated as her
feelings for him are, they're nothing compared to the
difficulties of the task she faces.
And the only way to defeat the enemy is to trust in a power
she can barely control, and put her life and her soul on the
line.
