Book description
Before Prophecy of the Sisters, before Alice and Lia became
pawns in the curse that turned sister against sister, the burden of
the prophecy belonged to their mother, Adelaide. This is her story.
Adelaide Milthorpe is losing her grip on sanity. She is a Gate - a
human portal to the Otherworlds, destined to bring forth Samael, the
most powerful demon of all time, and his Lost Souls. Prowling the
halls of Birchwood Manor, Adelaide is haunted by the whispers of the
otherworldly Souls, who seek to use her for entry into the real world,
where they would wreak havoc and rule beside their leader, Samael, in
chaos. Their pleas plague her, torture her, tempt her. Samael calls to
her, his promise of peace in the Otherworlds increasingly difficult to
resist. And the stakes are high, for if Adelaide gives in to his
urgings, her two daughters will inherit the same curse, forcing them
to make the same impossible choice as they, too, are cast in the roles
of Guardian and Gate.
In this novella that delves further into the Prophecy, Adelaide's
struggle to reconcile her two worlds as she descends into madness will
captivate fans of the Prophecy of the Sisters series and new readers
alike.
Michelle Zink is a mother of four who describes herself as 'scarily
music-obsessed'. She's a Southern California transplant living in Pine
Bush, New York.
