**SARAI HAS LIVED AND BREATHED NIGHTMARES SINCE SHE WAS SIX YEARS OLD.** **SHE BELIEVED SHE KNEW EVERY HORROR AND WAS BEYOND SURPRISE.** **SHE WAS WRONG.** **I**n the wake of tragedy, neither Lazlo nor Sarai are who they were before. One a god, the other a ghost, they struggled to grasp the new boundaries of their selves are dark-minded Minya holds them hostage, intent on vengeance against Weep. Lazlo faces an unthinkable choice--save the woman he loves, or *everyone else?*--while Sarai feels more helpless than ever. But is she?
