Every year, the gods demand blood. This year, they chose her sister.
In a world where magic is forbidden and the divine rule through fear, Maeve has learned to survive by following the rules. But everything unravels on the Godswake-the sacred day each year when those marked by the Fallen are revealed and the hunt begins in the name of purity.
When her sister, Aeris, is marked, Maeve makes an impossible decision: she'll find a way to take the mark onto herself.
With the help of Dorian-Aeris's quiet, watchful best friend-Maeve is thrust into a world of ancient magic, burning cities, and whispering forests. The ritual to transfer the mark is forbidden, the price unthinkable. And if they succeed, the consequences could ignite something far more dangerous than the gods ever intended.

Now she was nothing. Living on the streets of a town begging for money and food from travellers that didn't know who she was, unlike the rest of the town that thought of her as something unnatural even though she doesn't know why. Constantly abused by the townspeople who don't understand her, she is left to die in an alleyway after a horrible run in with three drunk men. She was expecting to die and have her corpse eaten by rats and other vermin. What she didn't expect was to be saved by a woman that was everything but human. "Do you want to live?" This woman asked and when she looked into herself she knew the answer, it came easy through her busted lips. "Yes." From that day on she became something else, something not human, something extraordinary and from that day forth she will serve this woman who saved her life and maybe one day remember her name or be given one by her new Mistress. Maybe one day she'll remember who she was and maybe she'll even find the one person that completes her soul. From that day forth she became a Nightwalker. Completed.

But when the only person who truly understands her darkness-Riven Knox, marked by the God of Death-comes back into her life, the lines between love and destruction begin to blur. The gods are watching. Varethin is rising. And this time, divinity may not survive her.
