    About this ebook

    What chance does one witch have against five vampires? Alone, not much. But Rayvin's allies are gathering...

    The battle between good and evil supernatural forces heats up in the long, cold November nights of the former mining town. But how will Rayvin's motley crew of spellcasters and shapeshifters cope when they discover the threat they face is even greater than they imagined?
