The war is over. The demon king is gone, his soul cast to the four winds. The Guardian survived despite her best efforts to join her mate. There is nothing left but to rebuild and return the demons left to their original home. Hell. New forces are at work to defeat the Guardian's best efforts, and there are still a few councilmen to deal with. But first, Rose must open a lost portal she never thought she would see again, and that won't happen until she solves a riddle that may just finish the work of her worst enemy. Peace isn't easy to attain, especially when half your soul lost, but she'll find redemption for her sins or die trying.
