Like all ruinous things, he came from the abyss.
Kidan Adane has finally embraced her darkness. She's killed without remorse, broken Uxlay University's most sacred law by inviting elusive rogue vampires, the Nefrasi, into their campus, and made a truce with the one vampire she swore she'd never trust - Susenyos Sagad.
Trapped with a violently unstable vampire and reeling from her sister's return, Kidan wields her anger like a weapon. She vows to master her house and protect the sacred artifact hidden within, even if it means forging an alliance with the depraved leader of the Nefrasi, Samson Sagad - and betraying Susenyos in the process.
When Kidan stumbles across a dangerous new philosophical text, it seems to hold the answers she seeks and promises the very thing she has lost: control. As the dark pages consume her, Kidan realises no soul at Uxlay is trustworthy - least of all Susenyos. For Kidan and Susenyos, the lines of loathing and attraction may blur, but the quest for power rules them both. And neither is willing to surrender.
As devastating secrets resurface from the past, Kidan and her sister, June, must finally confront each other and take their rightful places in the looming war.
