After winning her freedom from a reaper and facing off against a fearsome demon boss, Ava is now a masterless hellhound. Her friend, Leo, has found a new life after death: HeтАЩs returned as the Grim ReaperтАФthe first in centuries. As both try to adjust to their new circumstances, AvaтАЩs dark past comes back to wreak havoc on her . . . and the entire world.
A breed of monsters as smart as vampiresтАФbut who behave like zombiesтАФhas been sighted in Kansas. Ava canтАЩt believe these тАЬzompiresтАЭ are back. She thought sheтАЩd kicked their asses for good when she first battled them in a Nazi death camp. Now, theyтАЩre spreading their infection across AmericaтАЩs heartland thanks to a nasty piece of business named Cain.
Free at last after being locked up in Hell for millennia, Cain has some scores to settle. To stop him, Ava must form an unholy alliance with some old foes . . . a bargain that will lead her to uncover deeply buried truths about her pastтАФand LeoтАЩs future.┬а
