Niki thought being a vessel for Hun-Came, the Mayan death god, was her worst nightmare.
She was wrong.
Bound to Hun-Came, the Mayan god of death, Niki has become something she never wanted to be?a killer.
As bodies pile up and her control slips away, salvation arrives in the form of a cryptic message from Zen, the man who once held her heart. There's a way to sever the supernatural bond, but it requires a perilous journey to Guatemala where ancient magic still pulses through the mystical jungle.
Niki knows all too well the risks. Hun-Came has ruled death for millennia, and he won't release his human vessel without extracting a price that could destroy everything?and everyone?she loves.
Some bloodlines can't be outrun, some hungers can't be denied, and some attractions are dangerous enough to wake the dead.
She sacrificed herself for love?now she must save herself.
Return to the Guatemala's jungles with author Lisa Dietrich in her exciting sequel to In the Silence of Darkness. This time Niki is battling not only to save the people she loves but her own soul. Some bloodlines can't be outrun, some hungers can't be denied, and some attractions are dangerous enough to wake the dead.
