'Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches series is a surfeit of macabre delights, summoning up lush decadence, gothic secrets, and a little brimstone.'
Holly Black, Sunday Times bestselling author of Book of Night

'Rice's sprawling, supernatural family saga cements her in perpetuity as a titan of the gothic genre. Daring, dark, and lovely.'
S.T. Gibson, Sunday Times bestselling author of A Dowry of Blood

'A sensual, genre-defining thriller from the queen of gothic horror.'
Jay Kristoff, New York Times bestselling author of Empire of the Vampire

'Anne Rice did what so few writers do, and created something truly original.'
Cassandra Clare, New York Times bestselling author of Sword Catcher

The Mayfair Witches are in danger.

There is a new, unimaginable threat to the family – the Taltos, a species gifted with preternatural knowledge who created Lasher, the being who gave the witches their power and
almost destroyed them.

Unknown to the Mayfairs, another Taltos still lives. And Rowan is still tied to the grief of the past, unable to move on.

But as the witching hour comes to an end, Rowan must find the courage once again to face her past and, together with Michael, confront the legacy of the Mayfair Witches head on.

The third hypnotic book in her epic story of the Mayfair witches, following The Witching Hour and Lasher

'A curious amalgam of gothic, glamour fiction, alternate history, and high soap opera.'
The Washington Post Book World

'[W]hen I found Rice's work I absolutely loved how she took that genre and (...) made [it] feel so contemporary and relevant.'
Sarah Pinborough, bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes
