The premise, in the publisher's words

The photographer's house lies empty, its blood still. Before it stands a figure. The house beckons. Lights within flicker to life. Spirits stir at her return. An Ancra is only complete when it is understood. It requires both Vessel and victim. Whose remains shall you cast to flames? The book of the Serpent shall be your guide. And the final page remains unwritten.
