About this ebook

Ashling Donoghue is no closer to finding her parents than she was the night they disappeared. But hope returns as her brother Kian channels the Sword of Light, revealing past-life secrets and truths long suppressed. The more she learns, the greater she fears the darkness that drowns the Netherworld also drives her. Is Aengus her true love, or is it Lorcan? Does her future wait in shadow or the light? One point is clear: the threads of her past-self are woven inextricably into the tapestry of her soul. An impossible choice looms before her, and all the while, evil is poised to strike.

Ratings and reviews

Ashling and crew are really on the rise as more of their gifts grow. One of the twins is able to go back into someone’s memories and this helps them to learn vital information they would have never known otherwise. The relationship between Ashling and Aengus continues but Lorcan, as well as Ashling’s feelings for him, threatens to rip this couple apart. It’s a twisted love triangle and I have mixed feelings about it all, but then again, I’ve never been a fan of the triangle thing. Nevertheless, this is a cause for angst and drama that many readers are going to love. The pace here is fast and sharp. With a lot of action, plenty of clues and evidence as well as characters that are continuing to develop and otherworld beings, this makes for one wild ride that ends in a cliffhanger. Gah! This is like Nancy Drew Supernatural, on steroids...and I loved it! Ready for the next book!
