When a sudden tragedy strikes her inner circle, Violet realizes she is no longer the ring’s master—she is its prey. Caught in a tightening coil of supernatural suspense, Violet faces an impossible dilemma. Discarding the ring might seem like the answer, but the artifact doesn't let go of its host easily.
