The epic conclusion to the With Fire in Their Blood series.
Return to Castello, the crumbling Italian city torn between two warring mafia clans, where dark magic pulses the streets and love leads to ruin . . .
In one act of flame and fury, Lilly Deluca plunged the town of Castello into a brutal civil war and was stripped of her own Saintly power in the process. Wanted by opposing clans, Lilly fights to stay ahead of her pursuers while keeping herself and Christian, the boy she loves, alive.
But she cannot escape the city. Castello was built on secrets, and it won’t let Lilly out of its deadly grip. Something is calling to her from the depths of the town, promising to be the key to her salvation – returning her power and ending the war for good. . .
With the clans closing in, Lilly must team up with Nico, the beautiful boy from the rival mafia family, to uncover the truth about Castello’s dark heart. But as the conflict escalates and her connection to Nico intensifies, Lilly is forced to choose: break her own heart, or risk letting Castello fall forever.
It was always her destiny to burn this city to the ground…

When sixteen-year-old Lilly arrives in Castello, she isn't impressed. A secluded town in the Italian mountains is not where she saw her last years of high school playing out.
Divided for generations by a brutal clan-family war, the two halves of Castello are kept from destroying each other by the mysterious General, a leader determined to maintain order and 'purity'. . . whatever the cost. Lilly falls in with the rebellious Liza, brooding Nico and sensitive Christian, and sparks begin to fly. But in a city where love can lead to ruin, Lilly isn't sure she can trust anyone - not even herself.
And then she accidentally breaks Castello's most important rule: when the General's men come to test your blood, you'd better not be anything more than human.
