My Soul To Keep

When familiar forces of darkness converge on Daihmler County, so come new, more human, threats as the Blanchards face their ultimate reckoning.  Artemis Blanchard, now bearing the weight of the Sword of God, must hunt down her undead nephew Seth and his vampire wife Yasmine—two beings she once loved and raised as her own.  Meanwhile, Demitra struggles to hold the family together amidst growing internal fractures, even as Howard’s newfound power reveals a devastating cost.  Salem, undeterred by dissent, pushes forward with her plan to expose the supernatural world to the public, forcing the family to confront the consequences of coming out of the shadows.  Adding to the chaos, the Blanchards must face the truth about who Theda turned out to be while attempting to solve the mystery of who, or what, Ocean Blanchard really is…before Arielle becomes his wife. 

In this heart-pounding finale, the Blanchards come full circle, questioning everything they have sacrificed to protect an oblivious world.  Doing so irrevocably changed them, and now they stand ready to change the world—and let the cards fall where they may.  This unforgettable conclusion delivers the epic sendoff the Blanchard family so richly deserves.
