THE CONCLUSION TO THE STUNNING KEY TRILOGY.
Zoe had eaten in the dining room before, with its soaring ceilings and roaring fire. She knew how lovely everything looked under the lights of the chandeliers and the glow of candles.
But this time, she knew without a doubt the way the evening would end. It wouldn't be a matter of a lottery. It wouldn't be the luck of the draw.
Both Malory and Dana had taken their turns. She helped them. She knew she'd contributed ideas, support, even comfort. But when came to shove, she understood the burden had been on each of them, in their turn. In the end, both Malory and Dana had to reach deep inside themselves every bit as much as they'd had to reach for the tangilbe key.
Now it was her burden, her risk. Her chance. She had to be brave enough, smart enough, strong enough, or everything they'd done before her would be for nothing.
