The deeper I descend, the more I uncover about the witch who haunts me… and the shadow that may not belong to her alone. 
  Walpurgis Night approaches—the night witches burn. But what happens when it’s the warlock who strikes the match… willing to burn everything—my heart, my soul—to save the one I love?
