Lyra Rayne never expected her first week at Ravenshade University to end in her death. But death isn't the end-it's only the beginning. Connected to a 150-year-old tragedy, Lyra finds herself caught in a dangerous web of secret society and bloodline.
Sebastian Crimsonfall -- a cold and mysterious vampire haunted by his own past, discovers a disturbing link between Lyra's first death and the fire that destroyed his family's legacy.
Their fates intertwine in ways neither can control, pulling them into a conspiracy spanning centuries. As bodies pile up around them, it's always a peacock feather left behind. They must uncover who-or what-is orchestrating these deaths and fire before time runs out.
Will uncovering the truth save Lyra from another death-or doom her to die over and over again?
