About this ebook

Three hundred years ago, she sold her soul to a demon. Now she wants it back.

For centuries, the woman calling herself Maliha Crayne has lived a second life—as an assassin for the malevolent creature who owns her soul. A haunted killer with the blood of countless victims on her hands, she has finally discovered a way to nullify the demonic pact that chains her: If she saves a life for every one she has taken, she will be free.

But if she fails, her punishments will be unspeakable, unendurable . . . and neverending.

Ratings and reviews

I loved it! finished it without putting it down for no longer than fifteen minutes . Since I downloaded three this morning, or yesterday morning.

It wasn't bad. I may read more if bored

Easy read.
