Summary

Alex Verus can see the future. But he never thought he'd see this day. Manoeuvred by forces beyond his control, the probability mage has made a terrible choice: he's agreed to work for his old master once more.

Richard Drakh, the sadistic dark mage Alex escaped as an apprentice, has him in his clutches again. And this time he won't let go so easily.

Despite his old dark mage boss threatening to kill all of his friends, Verus does not return to work for him but has a foot in dark and light mage camps- still very much working independently. His feelings for Anne are stronger, and complicated. Just the right amount of danger and magic and suspense.
