Inheriting the path of a Seeker meant more than just honoring my ancestors; it meant a life of iron and blood. With Kai by my side-his hybrid nature the only thing keeping us ahead of the pack-we've spent our nights ridding the streets of Baltimore of the undead.
But now, we're the ones being hunted.
Leah, the original Daychild, has taken Matt. She's hollowing him out, and if we don't find him soon, there won't be anything left of my best friend. As vampires vanish across the city, we realize Leah has discovered a terrifying new way to mass-produce her Daychild army, and Matt is her first test subject.
I was born to hunt the dead, not watch my friends become them. While I struggle to live up to my Cherokee heritage, Leah is busy dismantling Matt's humanity and forging others like him. With Kai's hybrid powers, my ancestral steel, and Albania's strong magic, we're Baltimore's only hope.
Matt is running out of time-and I'm running out of ways to save him before he becomes the very monster I was born to kill.
