Serenity has no idea how to handle her rapidly changing daughter, but she knows one thing; Elizabeth needs her father around. As Los Angeles is plunged into darkness and danger, life is about to get a lot worse, not just for Elizabeth but for Serenity and Sebastian too. A balance has been disrupted and the world as they know it may be about to change..." – quoted from this book's product page on Amazon.com as of 2017-12-21.
