Summary
Banished by the church and betrayed by her family, Lilith Leviathan carves out a dangerous life in Nineveh, a neon-lit district where magic and crime intertwine. When she comes into possession of a powerful relic, it awakens enemies, a mysterious lover, and a prophecy she was born to fulfill.
Frantic after a fatal incident involving the blade, Lilith turns to Zahariev, head of the Zareth family and ruler of Nineveh, whose influence and information are unmatched. Together, they must uncover the relic’s true power while navigating the threats of the church, the city’s ruling families, and their growing, forbidden attraction.
In this seductive, slow-burn fantasy, Lilith and Zahariev confront danger, desire, and destiny in a world where power and love collide, and the line between ally and enemy is razor-thin.
