Beneath the city, the blood runs deeper than anyone knows.
In the hidden vampire city of Vireholm, power is determined by lineage, loyalty, and blood. Here, immortality begins at twenty-five-but only for those who survive the Ascension. Most vampires can't create life, and those who can are watched carefully by the ancient ruling families. Some believe the future lies in control. Others in blood.
Seris Thorne has been raised to uphold her House's legacy. When her long-awaited Ascension approaches, secrets long buried begin to surface-secrets that could unravel not only her future, but the fragile peace beneath the city's stone-veined walls.
Ravyn Marrow lives in the shadows between castes, a survivor of forgotten bloodlines and forbidden magic. He wants nothing to do with the courts, until visions begin to drag him toward a fate he never chose.
Above ground, strange dreams haunt a young girl, symbols reappear in ancient places, and a city no longer as secret as it believes begins to crack.
As destinies entwine and rebellion stirs beneath the surface, Seris and Ravyn are pulled into a mystery older than the Covenant itself-one that could change their world forever.
