Something is wrong in Rose Valley.
People are disappearing-pulled from their beds in the dead of night, only to be found lifeless by dawn. The bodies speak in riddles. The town whispers of a monster.
The police offer prayers.
If no one else will find the killer haunting their streets, she will.
But to do that, she'll need help from the last person she should trust.
Alexander Delcara. The boy with ash in his smile and something unholy in his eyes.
He's danger dressed in silk. Sin wrapped in charm. And he knows things he shouldn't.
Together, they make a pact. But the closer Elena gets to the truth, the more blurred the lines become. Between right and wrong. Between love and manipulation. Between salvation and ruin.
Some secrets should never leave the walls of Rose Valley.
Some confessions should never leave the Church.
And some monsters wear the faces we ache to touch.
