I already know their sins. When darkness comes--and it will--I will be the thing beneath the floorboards, the breath on their necks, the quiet that becomes the scream. I will return what they took, multiplied by the cruelty they practiced. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTheir hands built the blade. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTheir choices sharpened it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTheir blood will be the prize.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShami Stovall\u003c\/b\u003e is a multi-award-winning author of fantasy and science fiction, best known for her Chronos Chronicles, starting with \u003ci\u003eTime Marked Warlock\u003c\/i\u003e, and her Frith Chronicles series.
