They called it the Thorn Hill Massacre - the brutal attack on a
once-thriving Weir community. Though Jonah Kinlock lived through
it, he did not emerge unscathed: like the other survivors Jonah
possesses unique magical gifts that set him apart from members of
the mainline guilds. At seventeen, Jonah has become the deadliest
assassin in Nightshade, a network that hunts the undead. Emma
Claire Greenwood grew up worlds away, raised by a grandfather who
taught her music rather than magic. An unschooled wild child, she
runs the streets until the night she finds her grandfather dying,
gripping a note warning Emma that she might be in danger. The clue
he leaves behind leads Emma into Jonah's life-and a shared legacy
of secrets and lingering questions. Was Thorn Hill really a
peaceful commune? Or was it, as the Wizard Guild claims, a hotbed
of underguild terrorists? The Wizards' suspicions grow when members
of the mainline guilds start turning up dead. They blame
Nightshade, bringing tensions between the groups to a head.Racing
against time, Jonah and Emma work to uncover the truth about Thorn
Hill, amid increasing concern that whoever planned the Thorn Hill
Massacre might strike again.
