'She was supposed to be dead but something happened and she survived. And now, fourteen years later, she is resting, gathering her strength, and preparing for what is about to come; after all, it was foretold in a wish made with a dying breath.' Serena M. Herondale appears to be a simple girl, working in the library at the Institute, the most feared of agencies, maintaining peace in the new world. Yet she could not pay much attention to all that happens over there. Or so it seems. For no one can know the secrets she hides within. She must bear the burden of those secrets, and evade the dark for as long as possible. Alex Denovaris is one of the top enforcers at the Institute. He is no stranger to the bloodshed and upheaval that they see daily. His parents are highly ranked within the government and expect him to follow in their footsteps. Nonetheless, his heart draws him somewhere else, toward the mysterious killer who seems to have an agenda against the Institute. He vows to protect and serve with his life. He must be careful or he might end up giving just that, his life or worse, his heart. A saga of love, war, and revenge. A fight for legacy and all that has been lost. In the middle of it all, stands a girl shrouded by death.
