It is two thousand long years into the future. There is no more Earth. There is only Callistra. Since the conclusion of the fae civil war that decimated the human population, there has been a strained peace among the surviving mythical creatures. But now, a strange fae illness is spreading across Callistra, and the era of harmony is crumbling fast. Pasiphae of Eo has been framed. Her grandmother, the most powerful witch in Eo, has fallen sick, and Pasiphae is suspected to be responsible. Forced to flee her homelands for treason against her coven, the only way to clear her name is to find the true traitor. Pasiphae has no choice but to venture deep into unknown territory with help from one of the fae. He can help her find the cause of the illness from within the Unseelie Court, where the walls talk and the shadows move, and she can do for him what the fae cannot do themselves: lie. But a conspiracy is unravelling in this foreign land swathed under perpetual night. All Pasiphae wanted was to prove her innocence, but within the heady darkness of the malevolent faery court, there is love and betrayal so potent it could ruin the world a second time.

There is a mansion in the middle of nowhere called Vendetta House, tasked with the sole purpose of taking in kids like Ariel: Cambions, the offspring of demons. The day that Ariel turns eighteen, she not only discovers her abilities as a Cambion, but she is taken to Vendetta House, kicking and screaming. Gifted with telekinesis, telepathy, and elemental control, demon-bloods are removed from society for their own good, or so Ariel is told. But Ariel has bigger problems than her hostage situation. An abandoned section of Vendetta House hosts hundreds of dead spirits, ghostly remnants that only Ariel and another strange boy can see. Since her arrival, the dead numbers have been rising, and coincidentally, kids within the House are going missing too. With the help of her new friends, Ariel must uncover the secrets of Vendetta House, or before they know it, they may just disappear too.
