How do you kill an immortal? With magic that has seen life and death. With magic that has never been discovered before. With magic so out of control, so powerful, so volatile that it can fight anything else. Forbidden magic, of course. Almost sixteen years ago, a magical artefact was stolen and three people eluded Death. One of them had been tracked down and killed- another lived a quiet life, unnoticed by death. It would have been fine if the last had done the same, lived their life quietly to the end of their days. But it just so happened that they were the one of the three that had never been good. And the only one that was truly immortal. And so when Blake and Aster are settled down for some time away from death, away from reaping, to recover from the events of last year, they are surprised to find Arielle, sobbing, as her mother lay on the ground, dead. Who had done it? Why? And will they act quick enough to stop it from happening to them, too? I don't just want to elude death. I want to conquer it.
