In the highly-anticipated second book of the Drawing Thin series, the world moves ever closer to Armageddon. Old friends and new foes turn against Trent, while his new charge, Celia, spirals dangerously out of control. Six months after the unholy blizzard that ravaged Las Vegas, Trent Hawkins finds himself deeper in despair than ever before, with his wife banished to the enigmatic Realms of Shadow, his new 'daughter' a constant test of his will, and months of working for a demonic cabal grinding down his resolve. To make matters worse, his obsessive search for a way to return his wife to the land of the living takes a dark turn when he runs afoul of the mysterious Mr. Gadreel and the fire-wielding assassin in his employ. The truth of Trent's own past and the supernatural underbelly of modern-day Vegas grow even stranger as Trent faces his foes, new and old, and the fate of all mankind may rest on his choices. Meanwhile, in the Realms of Shadow, a strange journey begins-a journey that might be the key to saving Trent, Celia, and the world. Or, it could be the catalyst that ends everything.
