Letti Escacho is the oldest daughter of one of the most powerful families in her vampire coven. Far from the favorite child, her secret identity as the Shade, the leader's chosen executioner, helps fill that void. That is, until Letti goes rogue and kills the Escacho's biggest political rival: her own Sovereign's right-hand man.
Thinking she's in the clear, Letti is confronted by a shrouded blackmailer armed with damning footage of her treason. As long as Letti accepts an impending proposal, she's told the Sovereign will never know of her crime.
Back at the coven, the Sovereign forces Letti to accept an arranged marriage with the mysterious son of a family with the knowledge to forge the only weapon capable of permanently killing a vampire. The echo between the Sovereign's command, and the blackmailer's demands isn't lost on Letti, but she'll do anything to help her father rise in the coven's ranks.
With her identity as the Shade-and the balance of power within the coven--at risk, Letti must unmask her blackmailer before they can rip away everything she's worked for. Could it be her charming new husband, her seemingly loyal best friend, or even a member of her own family? The deeper she digs, the closer she comes to exposing her most shameful secret, forcing her to decide just how much she's willing to sacrifice for a family who would turn on her the moment they learned the truth.
