Her only hope: an experimental process pioneered by a renowned Bavarian doctor and his American assistant, Abelson, who have arrived at Stanhope Manor to administer the procedure.Now resurrected from the dead, Anne Wiltshire finds herself imbued with preternatural strength and seemingly limitless power. Terrifying those around her with her new abilities, she terrifies herself with her ever-increasing, intoxicating desire for the darkness which surrounds her from without...and the shadows which dwell within. Her only anchors to the world of the living are her new husband Abelson, her lady's maid Millie, and the two-hundred-year-old revenant of a once-accused witch named Jennet who serves as her mentor and guide through the midnight-black darkness of Anne's new life. Anne will come to learn of the terrible nature of her new gifts, the truth of the conflict which she has now joined, and the dreadful mission she has been given no choice but to accept. Anne Wiltshire will discover that ever has she been one of the Orphans of Chance...A Daughter of The Fates...One of The Children of Nowhere.
