Description

When the Dark Queen rises, our world will crumble...

For centuries, war has been brewing below the surface of New York. People known as the soulless—immortal humans with strange powers—have threatened life on the surface. The Dark Queen seeks revenge for a crime long forgotten and wants to rule the world.

Eighteen-year-old Riley Stark—a new recruit in the Sentinels, a military group that protects Earth from the Underworld—thinks she's joining for the right reason. As a child, she narrowly escaped an assassination attempt on her life, and has wanted justice ever since.

After Riley goes snooping through her records, she finds the terrible truth—her ancestor was Mira Stark who killed the famous Dark King, and the soulless have wanted her family's blood spilled. When Riley falls in love with a soulless boy she's been taught to hate, she realizes that she can't trust anyone—soulless or otherwise.
