Il bacio delle tenebre

After traveling through time to Elizabethan London, historian and witch Diana Bishop and vampire scientist Matthew Clairmont return to the present to face a world of new crises and old enemies. Their homecoming is marked by loss and the looming threat of the Congregation, which forbids their union and the powerful magic Diana now commands. The fragile peace they have fought for is more precarious than ever as they reunite with their family at Matthew's ancestral home, Sept-Tours. The future of witches, vampires, daemons, and humans hangs in the balance, dependent on their success.

With Diana's pregnancy advancing, the search for the enchanted manuscript Ashmole 782 becomes a desperate race against time. The book is believed to hold the secrets to the origins of all supernatural creatures and the key to their survival. As Diana and Matthew hunt for its missing pages, they must also confront a vengeful enemy from Matthew's past. This final chapter of their story forces them to confront deep-seated prejudices and forge new alliances to protect their forbidden love and the future of their family.
