The Battle of Hogwarts is over, Voldemort defeated-or so everyone believes. But in the shadows, the remnants of the Death Eaters are regaining strength, led by a woman more determined than ever. Alora Carrow always knew that arranged marriages were a reality in the world of pure-bloods. But when she is forced to marry a man she barely knows, she has no idea that he is hiding far more secrets than she could ever imagine. What happens when the past begins to creep into the present, and the masks start to fall? A game of deception, power, and inescapable fate begins-and Alora is caught right in the middle of it.
