Overview

Sanctuary Wards Book 4: The Intervention Some choices can't be made for you. They have to be made by you. Nathan Hale thought he was getting better. He goes to church now, sits in the back pew at Grace Community, surrounded by people who have no idea they're sitting next to a man who can raise the dead. He's got Lila in his life, a tentative grip on normalcy, and a brass locket that reminds him why he fights to stay human. Then the Veil starts to collapse. Ghosts that should pass on instead linger. Shadows move wrong. And at Northside Community College, students start dying, killed by spirits trapped between worlds. Nathan is the only one who can stop it. The only one with the power to contain the manifestations, to stabilize the breach, to save lives. All it costs is his soul. Each spell erodes a little more of his empathy. Each raise of the dead makes it easier not to feel. Lila watches the man she loves disappear behind those flat, calculating eyes, watching him become someone she doesn't recognize. ""Someone has to do this,"" he says. ""Someone,"" she answers, ""doesn't have to be you."" When the crisis peaks, Nathan raises seventeen skeletal guardians simultaneously. It's a feat that should be impossible, a display of power that makes even the vampires step back in alarm. He saves the campus. He saves everyone. But when it's over, standing surrounded by the bones of seventeen people he used as tools, he smiles. That's when Lila knows: the intervention can't wait anymore. They come to him six strong. Lila, Victor, his professors, a pastor who's seen more than Nathan realizes. They don't come to fix him. They come because they love him, and they're not going to watch him disappear without a fight. Will Nathan choose to remain human, or surrender to the magic that promises efficiency but demands empathy? This is not a story about saving the world. It's a story about choosing who you want to be.
