With the walls closing in and enemies drawing even closer, loyalties blur, Angelica must decide whether to run from the danger-or dive headfirst into it. And falling for Sebastian could be her most dangerous mistake of all. Because in a world built on deception, some secrets are deadly. And the truth might kill her.
