Night is made of shadows and shadows have teeth.

Charlie Hall, glue trap for disaster, crooked from the day she was born, whod never met a bad decision she wasnt willing to double down on, may have finally met her match.

After defeating Salt and stealing her loverthe powerful shadow, Vinceback from under the noses of the powerful Cabal leaders, she thought shed won. Agreeing to become the Hierophant and risking her life hunting down dangerous rogue shadows seemed a small price to pay if she got to do it while being tethered to Vince.

But Vince is no longer the man she loved. The tethering process wiped away his memories of the last year, leaving only Redthe ruthless shadow who spent years as a killer for a cruel, mercurial billionaire. Red doesnt remember Charlie and doesnt like her.

So when Charlie is ordered to track down the Blight responsible for a massacre at a local church, shes worse than just alone, heartbroken, and outmatched. Shes vulnerable. In a world where shadows have wills of their own, the question isnt just how to survive. Its how to protect yourself from the on thing you can never escapeyour own shadow.
