An ancient prophecy divides two sisters-
One good...
One evil...
Who will prevail?
Twin sisters Lia and Alice Milthorpe have just become orphans. They
have also become enemies. As they discover their roles in a
prophecy that has turned generations of sisters against each other,
the girls find themselves entangled in a mystery that involves a
tattoo-like mark, their parents' deaths, a boy, a book, and a
lifetime of secrets.
Lia and Alice don't know whom they can trust.
They just know they can't trust each other.
In this highly-anticipated sequel to "Prophecy of the Sisters,"
sixteen year-old orphan Lia Milthorpe continues her quest to end an
ancient prophecy that has turned generations of sisters against
each other. Having now accepted the responsibilities tied to her
role as Gate, Lia journeys to the unchartered isle of Altus to
continue her search for the missing pages of the Book of Chaos--the
pages that could tell her how to end the prophecy once and for all.
Along the way, her courage, strength, and soul are tested in ways
she never could have imagined.
Meanwhile, twin sister Alice continues to hone her spellcasting
abilities, completely ignoring the rules that govern the
Otherworlds. Alice will stop at nothing to reclaim Lia's role of
Gate, and that's not the only thing she wants. There's also Lia's
true love, James.
The outcome of this battle between sisters will have consequences
of Biblical proportion. In the end, only one sister will be left
standing.
With time dwindling but her will to end the Prophecy stronger than
ever, Lia sets out on a journey to find the remaining keys, locate
the missing pages of the Prophecy, and convince her sister Alice to
help--or risk her life trying. Lia has her beloved Dimitri by her
side, but Alice has James, the man who once loved her sister--and
maybe still does. James doesn't know the truth about either sister,
or the prophecy that divides them. And Alice intends to keep it
that way. There are some secrets sisters aren't meant to share.
Because when they do, it destroys them. This stunning conclusion to

good-bye bittersweet for readers.
