After her testimony sends her father to prison, Sara finds herself on the road with a newer stranger, but fractures appear, threatening her new freedom. The season of childhood is slipping away as little by little an unseen force rips the world and Gabriel's family apart. And Jones may be an artist of money with a talent for helping others get ahead, but war within is tearing up the city around him as he stumbles through its gothic nightmare. What strange power is working to bring them together, with Arl, who seems to know the way out?
