The Rook legacy: duty at all Costs. Regina’s family are the last living members after a long line of magical families. Their heritage is a promise to the world; they can be trusted to keep magic from corrupting power hungry witches — In doing so they keep an unearthly evil from crushing humanity. When Regina Rook's mother dies a sudden, violent death, the living coven members come from around the world to attend the funeral, and begin breathing down her neck as next in line to lead. Trying to find a balance between her own goals as a witch and her family's demands, all the while keeping her recent nightmares hidden where she becomes the very thing they fighting. But when those things become intertwined, can she do anything but watch as the world around her crumbles to ancient horrors?
