Description

Târgoviște, Romania 1462
After a deal with an ancient demon goes awry, sixteen witches discover that they've been cursed to spend eternity as the Striga; half-human bird demons with an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Banished from their villages, the Striga wander Europe searching for a mythical angel who can make them human again.
Hunted for decades and starving, the Striga flee for the shores of the New World hoping to find the angel Leda and a cure. With their chances and numbers dwindling, the Striga settle west, founding Talon Wood, a village teeming with natural resources and ships full of plump colonists arriving every year...
Talon Wood, West Virginia--Present Day
As the heir to the Aluco throne, Wren Fisher has enjoyed a childhood of luxury and privilege at the Queen's knee. But when she fails to develop the hunger of the Striga, rumors swirl among the citizens that Wren may actually be human, an accusation that leads to her father's murder, and reveals an old Striga prophecy; that a human hiding among them would someday destroy the world. With a death warrant on her head and Talon Wood teetering on the brink of a revolution, Wren is sent to live with humans in the hopes that the prophecy is wrong.
Unable to remember anything about her past, Wren builds a new life with a new family in Kentucky, hiding her unusual food cravings and an urge to leap from rooftops; haunted by the single memory of a glowing man who once hid a secret in her heart.
As her twenty-fourth birthday and the fulfillment of the prophecy approaches, so does Misero Marnius, a deadly demon bounty hunter determined to cut out Wren's heart and harness her abilities for himself.
To save herself and the people she loves, Wren must return to Talon Wood to face the truth about her father's murder, defeat a sadistic demon and hide a one-million year old angel with deadly plans of her own.
