[Devilborn 02] • Gathering Black

Verity has always depended on her magic to protect her. But with the fate of Bristol hanging in the balance, defense is no longer enough.

Racing to get to the lethal sapwood seeds ahead of those who would use them to bleed the town and enslave its inhabitants, Verity and Cooper are beset by traps and betrayals. And as they begin to unravel the grisly secrets of Cooper’s own clan, they soon learn there are some horrors that even the strongest of protection spells can’t save them from.

This time, Verity will have to become a deadly weapon herself, or else lose Cooper, the seeds—and her life.
