Born into wealth and privilege, Ophelia knows better than anyone the rot that hides at the top. That's because she's made it her job to clean up the filth. So when the butler of a prominent vampire family shows up on her doorstep, pleading for sanctuary for him and his employers' teenage scion, she expects nothing but tarnished silver.
Bastian has long since lost his belief that those who rule his people ever deserved the privilege, but now he must turn to one of the elite to save the girl he thinks of as his daughter. Yet while Ophelia's ideologies chafe, she's different. He also knows better than anyone how betrayal destroys, and why she's steeled herself against everyone, including him.
Together, Bastian and Ophelia must hunt the demons that threaten their race, but their class differences—and their dangerous chemistry—threaten to topple their partnership. If they can't work together, the demons will conquer all, starting with Bastian's innocent charge.
