There's more to life than the dead...
...even for the most powerful necromancer in the Watch.
Lilly has reached the top of her field. She's now a senior necromancer for the Capital City Watch and is one of the strongest they've ever had. But there's more to life than work, or at least there should be, so Lilly sets off to find a new way to relax and unwind.
Chess and painting are well and good, but they don't quite turn out to be all she hopes for. Then, when her best friend needs help with the love of her life, Lilly realizes what's been missing from hers.
Luckily, she meets a handsome young Nuisance Man, someone entirely not right for her, but sometimes love has a way of taking on a life—or death—of its own.
Before she knows it, Lilly is beginning her greatest adventure yet, and she'll do anything to protect it.
