Diana Bishop embarks on a profound journey into her own darkness and family history in the fifth novel of the beloved All Souls series. Introduced as an Oxford scholar and witch alongside vampire geneticist Matthew de Clairmont, Diana's story began with their love amidst the quest for the enchanted manuscript Ashmole 782. Since then, they have explored Elizabethan England, dismantled the Covenant between their species, and awakened dark powers within Diana's lineage. Now, faced with a formal demand from the Congregation to test the magic of their seven-year-old twins, Pip and Rebecca, Diana is determined to protect them from the fate that befell her parents. To forge a different future for her family, she responds to a message from her long-lost great-aunt, Gwyneth Proctor, inviting her home. At Ravenswood, the Proctor family estate, Diana begins a new chapter under Gwyneth's guidance, a skilled witch in higher magic.
