Leila doesn't remember a life outside of the prison. For 17 years, she has sat in her cell, etching marks on the wall to keep track of the days. That is, until one day she is rescued by Prince Rhys on command of the King of  Casamont. The king believes she is the child foretold in the prophecy to defeat his brother and vanquish the army of undead he has gathered. Leila must learn everything about the new world she has been thrown into, and discover her terrifying powers along the way.

Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four. ***** Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond.
