Alyssa thought moving to the little town of Blackwood Hollow would be her escape, a chance to blend in and start fresh. But when she witnesses something impossible-something no ordinary human was meant to see-her life takes a sharp and dangerous turn.
Whispers of the Eclipsed Veil, an ancient order shrouded in secrecy, begin to haunt her. Alyssa doesn't know who they are or what they want, but one thing is clear: they're watching her. Her only solace comes in the form of two new students at her high school-enigmatic, alluring, and far too interested in her for comfort.
Are they allies sent to protect her? Or are they keeping her under the Veil's control? As Alyssa is drawn deeper into their world of strange magic and shadowy loyalties, she begins to unravel the truth about herself-a truth even the Veil might fear.
Caught in a web of secrets, power, and a connection she can't explain, Valerie must tread carefully. One wrong move, and the Eclipsed Veil may ensure she's silenced forever. But what if what they fear most... is her?
