It’s not just the dead that are haunting Charlotte Lovett. When horrifying things begin happening after the slaughter of her entire family, Charlotte turns to the only thing she vowed never to use—sacrificial magic.

Quickly, Charlotte finds herself thrust into a dark, paranormal world where childhood games turn deadly, massacres masquerade as lavish balls, and the barrier between the living and dead is easily transgressed. Trapped in the center of a deadly plot between three paranormal forces that all want her dead, Charlotte must find a way to save herself, even if it means opening her heart to the darkness she’s trying to escape.
