Nothing is more dangerous than a young vampire seeking the truth.
Claudia Richelieu lives a double life. Shadow Bane trainee by day, Chimera operative by night. Her mission to protect Haven's citizens keeps her busy-until her mentor Sabine Moros vanishes.
Defying a direct order from Haven's ruler to mount a rescue mission, her search leads her to Scotland, where she uncovers a deadly conspiracy between two rival groups-the Shadow Banes and the Nightshades.
Now Claudia must infiltrate the Shadow Banes to find Sabine while dodging assassination attempts from their rivals, the Nightshades. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes everyone has an agenda. Even those she trusts most.
Time is running out.
Claudia races to rescue her mentor before her enemies unleash catastrophic truths buried for centuries. Her search forces her to make an impossible choice: save Sabine or protect Haven from devastating knowledge that could destroy everything she loves.
Will Claudia's loyalty to her mentor doom Haven to destruction? Or will sacrificing Sabine be the key to keeping vampire society's darkest secrets buried forever?
