After falling into the land of the dead as a young adult, Mara Ver Fatuil was scarred for life. Her only family she can bear to face, Professor Renaud, invites her on the adventure of a lifetime; to explore the hidden depths of a long-lost temple to the dead gods. With the strong arm of her roommate Solvi, the quick fingers of the rodent-like Fred Seeker and the bulwark of Arthur De Reyes' faith, they will uncover the machinations of the sinister Sunburst Army. A group of radical elvish nationalists who seek to restore a wondrous empire of the past. But all is not as it seems with Ver Fatuil. Her strange demeanour and power over the dead lead many to whisper and wonder what foul things she may have concocted. Only time and tragedy will tell.
