Veritas hides rotting secrets in its catacombs while souls go uncollected.
Raven Gunn, a reaper trapped in the palace, is bound by a blood bargain and by a curse of her own making, and she is unprepared for the emotions closing in on her.
Her coreaper, Chace Badden, is fighting over who he is and what he wants, torn between his duty to the reaping and his determination to keep Raven safe, even if he must tear through the citadel’s secrets and disregard anyone in his way.
For a hundred years, undying citizens have remained entombed there under magic that stops reapers from restoring the balance between life and death.
With the first key to undoing that spell finally in their hands, Raven and Chace still face royal politics and hidden foes, and one wrong move could doom the city or ruin their souls.
