About the Book
In this final
installment of Cherry St. Croix's adventures, only one thing could
compel the disgraced countess to return to Society — the threat of
immortality.
All is not peaceful in the wake of the Midnight
Menagerie's ruin. Although the Karakash Veil has been forced to flee its stronghold, the mysterious head of the criminal organization is not
content to fade away.
Above the foggy drift, a priceless diamond
vanishes. In the dangerous Underground, a murderous rampage demands
retribution. The hunt for the mastermind behind these misdeeds sends me
back to Society — and into the unforgiving embrace of the world I'd left
behind.
Nothing is what it seems. Enemies, allies — and a man who
struggles with a nature even devotion cannot tame. Torn between the
scars of the past and fragile new beginnings, I must create balance in
the world I have chosen — and with the people I have come to love. The
game has changed; should the Veil achieve the immortality it craves, I
will have nowhere left to run.
