Synopsis

Right now I wasn't seeing Richard as the teacher out of my nightmares, he was just another Dark mage, and I looked into the future to see what would happen if I turned that knife on him instead . . .

Alex Verus is still haunted by his time apprenticed to Richard Drakh. He's been free of him for many years, but now the only way to keep his friends from being harmed is to again work for Richard and his deadly ally. Even worse, he's forced to bring the Light mage Anne into this servitude as well.

After weeks of being hunted and finally cornered into what he thought was his last stand, Alex never thought his life would be spared—and never anticipated at what price. This time, the diviner can see no way out . . .

Holy shit! Well, Alex and Anne haven't been executed after that convoluted quit-pro-quo madness from the previous installment, but they had to enter Richard's service and now work for the dark mage council member on loan. Naturally, everyone is avoiding them, isolating them worse than ever. And then t......more

Goodreads review by T. K. Elliott (Tiffany) on April 15, 2017

This is the eighth book in the Alex Verus series, and I'm glad to find that Alex is finally realising that he has to do something other than just deal with today's problem then sit back and wait for tomorrow's. He's starting to think ahead, and this gives the potential for more interesting developme......more
