When Melanie does give birth, the result of that experience pushes Nina toward a new goal: conquering the demon city of Pandemonia and killing Kastor, the demon who runs the place. Nina is ready to give hers up if necessary.

If Melanie gives birth and there is no available soul for the newborn, the baby will die within hours. Nina’s major concern is her pregnant little sister, Melanie. Nina and her diverse band know, though, that it’s actually run by demons. The white teen’s ability to exorcise demons has made her a wanted criminal in the eyes of the Unified Church, which now dominates what’s left of America. This sequel to The Stars Never Rise (2015) follows Nina and her friends into the desert wasteland of a post-apocalyptic, demon-ridden United States.
