Picking up a month after book one in The Rising Shadows series, our main character sees for herself the aftermath of the Yellowstone eruption. With Death's kind freed from the pact, our characters set out into the world to pick up the pieces of the catastrophic event. Unfortunately things have a way of not going according to plan. While humans are trying to survive and get back on their feet they are suddenly exposed to the Shadow Walkers for the first time, and they aren't happy about it. With the country in shambles, will humanity extend an open arm to whatever aid they can get? Or will there be war?
