Vivian's enemies are gaining strength and making plans-plans she's determined to stop. Our master vampire returns to Alaska to uncover valuable information she's hidden for centuries. And while they're home, Rafe and Jon hone skills they'll need before tracking down the only vampires who might stand with them: Vivian's previous turns. Before the trio leaves, a magical ward of protection will be laid around the resort, a new arrival discovers long-lost family, and an alpha werewolf must master an ability that could change pack relations forever. Sounds doable, right? Until a plane crashes, filled with people Vivian has sworn to protect. Journey along on this next installment of the V V Inn-where those we trust are tested, and not all of them will survive.
