Who wants to be immortal in a land where death feels like the only true escape?
Etienne Arceneaux. Ancestor of Lezare. Released from the bonds of slavery by death. Only this was not the death any man would have wanted. The only remedy to avoiding that death was the last one he would have wanted.
Except Etienne wasn't given a choice. The high witch of Black Glade Coven, Latrice Mathieu knew that he would play an important role in the future of the New Orleans supernatural society.
She never knew how much.
See a side of Leandra Mathieu's grandmother Latrice you couldn't have imagined. She travels north after the Civil War to take her white tiger shifter daughter Lucia to the man who fathered her. Only to lose her.
Follow Etienne on his path to freedom, and then take Etienne's sojourn back to Arceneaux plantation, the place he'd never thought he'd return to, where he meets Celine Arceneaux, a redheaded fiery beauty that claims his heart as fiercely as he claims her body.
Life is not quite so simple for the returned Etienne Arceneaux in the Arceneaux Plantation, a place that put the scars on his soul which are almost as visible as the scars on his body.
Inescapable scars.
Inescapable lives.
Inescapable futures.
