BORN TO A FAMILY OF POWERFUL WITCHDOCTORS, Arrah longs for magic of her own. But she fails at bone magic, fails to see the future and fails to call upon the ancestors. With each passing year her ambitious mother looks on her with ever-growing disapproval. If she does not receive magic soon, it may never come.
But there is one thing Arrah hasn't tried.
It is possible to trade years from your own life for a taste of power: a cheap trick with a heavy price - for you cannot know how much time each ritual will take. It's something Arrah never would have stooped to - until children began to disappear from the city.
When Arrah trades her life for magic to find the child-snatcher, she uncovers secrets so terrible and shocking that her world is changed forever...
