Turning sixteen is a major event, ask anyone that's done it. Driving, dating, getting through that nasty Chemistry test, maybe even starting to think about where to go for college. So, what do you do, when you find out that you got an extra birthday gift this year, that you soooo weren't expecting? Well, if you're Cin, then you're probably running for your life, wishing that the worst thing you had to worry about was flunking Chemistry, or getting a date for Prom. Demons, Half-breeds, Hunters, and the undead... Will life ever get back to normal?
