Civil war has come to the island of Bellona. Veda Adeline believes in the Night. She’s joined the underground revolutionaries and is determined to overthrow the ruling Imperi and find justice for her people. Nico Denali, Veda’s childhood best friend and maybe-something-more, is one of those ruling Imperi, and he’s just been named heir to the most powerful man above ground. As the war intensifies, Veda and Nico are both captured by their enemies and leveraged against each other: Veda is above as a hostage of the Imperi and Nico is below, taken by the Night. The island will burn unless Veda and Nico can come together from opposite sides of Bellona to rip everything apart.
