There is no night in the Everburning City. There can never be. Malice hides behind tragedy, as a conspiracy begins to gather steam. Natalia Casper, reporter for the Tributary, risks more than her reputation as she finds herself chasing plots that reach from High Central to the furthest walls. Adrian Keates, fleeing a life of crime, takes refuge in the one place in the City with strength enough to drive off even the hardened thugs of the Undercity, and finds himself tutored by a legend of the City's army. Tabitha a'Loria, already summoned to fight hellfire and insanity, is forced to hunt for someone who unwittingly holds dangerous secrets. Secrets that could either tear the City apart, or offer it the first hope it has known since the Founding.

Grier Johnson has it all, the good looks, rich and famous parents, and she's the most popular girl at St. Agnes High. Although she appears superficial and onesided to everyone at school, she often finds herself in a hole when she can't express who she truly is without breaking her popular status. Everett Griffin hasn't had it as easy as Grier has despite going to the same schools for the past five years. The once bullied boy with the thick glasses and lean frame comes back from summer break looking as hot as ever. But he also comes back with a tragic summer that no one knows about. Although he tries to stay under the radar, it's quite impossible when Grier and Everett are the only two in the music producing class.
