The bargain was broken. The debt was not.
For two centuries, the witches of Hollowmere have bought their protection with the lives of their daughters. Wren Ashcroft was supposed to be another name in the ledger. Instead, Dorian pulled her from the stones-and the ancient creditor lost its payment.
Now the wards are failing. Crops blacken in the fields. The coven's women are losing their strength, their magic, and the years they have left.
And the creditor has returned to collect.
Wren has spent months in hiding with Dorian, searching the memories of the women who came before her for the truth he has not told. But when the debt turns toward Bryn, a six-year-old girl Wren has sworn to protect, hiding is no longer an option.
To save her, Wren must return to the family that sacrificed her and confront the bargain that has ruled Hollowmere for generations. Ending it may cost her the man she loves-and everything the coven has left.
For two hundred years, Hollowmere has paid with its daughters. Wren intends to be the last.
