Betrayal (Shadow Hunters Trilogy #1) *COMPLETE*
Book 1 of 3
When fifteen-year-old Eva witnesses the assassination of her abusive stepfather, she expects to be left with nothing. Instead, she is offered survival by the man who killed him. William Hastings is a member of the Shadow Hunters-an elite and feared order of assassins who operate in the shadows of 13th century England. Against his leader's wishes, William takes Eva to the sanctuary and trains her to become one of them.
Years later, she is no longer a frightened girl but a skilled hunter in her own right-and William is no longer just her mentor. Their partnership becomes a marriage forged in loyalty and blood, and together they are known as a formidable duo within the order. But when a mission ends in an ambush that leaves William dead in her arms, Eva's world fractures. The attack was too precise. Too deliberate. And only one man knew their route.
Determined to uncover the truth, Eva sets out on a path of vengeance that will force her to question the very foundation of the Shadow Hunters. As alliances shift and hidden loyalties surface, she discovers that betrayal does not always come from enemies in the dark-it can rise from the sanctuary itself.
In a kingdom ruled by kings, outlaws, and secrets, Eva must decide whether she is still a weapon... or something far more dangerous.
