Synopsis
Zoey is a High Priestess in training at the House of Night and badly needs a break, but school life offers none. She is still balancing three boyfriends, including a Warrior who can sense her emotions. A dark force is spreading through the tunnels under Tulsa, and her friend Stevie Rae may be connected to it. Aphrodite has visions warning Zoey to avoid the immortal Kalona, yet the same visions show that only Zoey can stop him. If she refuses to meet him, he will punish the people closest to her, so she has to find the courage to face him.
