Stolen Shadows

Behind the ancient glamour of a New York church, the Institute serves as a sanctuary for the Nephilim. For Arya Lightwood, it is a fortress of rigid duty and the weight of a legendary name. Her life is a calculated cycle of sharpening steel and resisting the electric, dangerous tension she shares with Blake Breakspear-the Institute's most reckless and unpredictable soldier.

When a routine mission to a Brooklyn nightclub reveals whispers of a dead tyrant's return, Arya and Blake's world is shoved to the brink of war. As the magical and mundane worlds collide, they must navigate a rising darkness that threatens the Institute and an unresolved passion that threatens to consume them both. In a world where love is a liability, they must decide if they are each other's greatest strength or their ultimate downfall.
