Playing dead is safe… but Sumi’s never been safe.
Somehow, impossibly, Sumi and Jay have escaped the Temple of the Damned and landed in the Rest Third with Jay’s family. Of course the dark goddess Maldita never gives up what is hers, and Sumi is no exception.
The damned are hunting her. Sumi gives up her magic to hide, but her sons are full of mischief and their own growing magic, and only Sumi can teach them, encourage control over power, quiet over flash, hidden over found.
Pretending to be no one and nothing is all the protection she has. If the blessed or the damned find her, they’ll drag Sumi back to their temple. If the neighbors discover who she is, they’ll give her up themselves. If the demon hunters find Sumi, they’ll kill her— again.
If Sumi can avoid the damned and the blessed, avoid the curious, avoid the murderous, she and Jay might have a chance…
