我是個通靈者,就是那種能看見精靈的人類。這種能力找上我的時間並不長,而且它也不管我願意不願意。
我的想法很簡單——在我的故事裡,如果有哪一天沒有人來追殺我,這天就很值得紀念。最近,這種值得紀念的日子越來越少了……
麥凱拉的姐姐被人殺害了,死前她留下了唯一的線索——在麥凱手機中留下謎一樣的訊息。麥凱為了尋找答案,來到愛爾蘭。很快她就面臨了一個巨大的挑戰:活著,並且學會控制一種她也不瞭解的瘋狂力量——一種可以透過人類世界,看到危險的精靈世界的力量。
麥凱離解開姐姐的死亡之謎越來越近,她的一舉一動都被一個神秘人耶利哥巴隆斯所關注著。與此同時,白精靈界的首領瓦雷恩也盯上了她,試圖勾挑起麥凱體內深沉的慾望。
當阻隔精靈界與人類世界的大牆開始崩潰,麥凱終於明白了自己的真正使命:搶在別人之前,找到那本充滿了無上能量的黑暗之書——《黯之罪》。因為,第一個宣稱擁有這本書的人,就等於將人類世界和精靈世界全部都掌控在自己手中……
MacKayla Lane’s life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she’s your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks…until something extraordinary happens.
When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death–a cryptic message on Mac’s cell phone–Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed–a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae….
As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister’s death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane–an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women–closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac’s true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book–because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands….
