Taryn Nyte has always walked the streets without a worry, and she has always slept through the worst of nightmares - until now. Kidnapped in the City of Melbourne by demons she never thought to be real, Taryn meets an aloof young bounty hunter by the name of Kael who begrudgingly offers to help when more demons come crawling. But when she and Kael are bound by a force more powerful than any of the creatures hunting her, Taryn will be dragged into a world that has co-existed with her own since the beginning of time, where those she is told to trust cannot be trusted at all and where even a normal face can hide a demonic past. With demons, Immortals and everything in between on the hunt for Taryn, this world, it seems, has been waiting for her. If only she knew why.

Going through my pictures, I went to the one that I had just taken, and the phone slowly slipped out of my grasp. What had escaped my notice before is that the couch I had taken the picture on was against a window, which showed the backyard of the house. But in this picture, it wasn't an empty backyard. No, behind my smiling face was another one, outside the window. It was his face. Covered with a black ski mask, watching me. *** All 19-year-old Layna wanted to do was forget about the guy that broke her heart, and move on with her new boyfriend Brian. But instead, she unwittingly attracted the attention of a stalker. Someone who had been watching her every move for a month, plotting and planning for the perfect moment when he could take her. What Layna never would have expected was that when he finally kidnaps her, she would have to undergo "The Test". The Test that the girls before her had gone through. The one they failed, and payed heavily for. Will she pass The Test or will she die like the others?
