Samenvatting:

Alluring romance, heart-stopping danger, and sinister intrigue combine in the penultimate volume of Melissa Marr's #1 New York Times bestselling Wicked Lovely series.

Half-human and half-faery, Ani is driven by her hungers.

Those same appetites also attract powerful enemies and uncertain allies, including Devlin. He was created as an assassin and is brother to the faeries' coolly logical High Queen and to her chaotic twin, the embodiment of War. Devlin wants to keep Ani safe from his sisters, knowing that if he fails, he will be the instrument of Ani's death.

Ani isn't one to be guarded while others fight battles for her, though. She has the courage to protect herself and the ability to alter Devlin's plans—and his life. The two are drawn together, each with reason to fear the other and to fear for one another. But as they grow closer, a larger threat imperils the whole of Faerie. Will saving the faery realm mean losing each other?

• Enemies to Lovers: He was created to be her killer. Now, he's the only one who can keep her safe.
• Assassin Hero: Devlin serves the High Queen of Order, but his loyalties are tested by a woman he can't resist and a duty he can't ignore.
• Half-Human Heroine: Ani's dangerous fae hungers make her a target for the most powerful forces in Faerie, including the ruthless embodiment of War.
• The Wild Hunt: As a child of the Wild Hunt, Ani is more predator than prey, but even she may not be prepared for the war brewing between the fae courts.
