She'll tell you her name is Beverly, but it's not.
It has been one year since Prim woke up surrounded by the mutilated bodies of her family. To disappear she's dyed her hair, run from the hometown she loved, and taken up cheating at poker to make ends meet without leaving a paper trail. With the assistance of a disembodied guide she calls Voice, she has managed to stay one step ahead of the monsters that killed her family.

But her luck has just run out.

Jonathan Rivers is a man who can get anything he wants, except for the one thing that was taken from him: The half of his stolen powers hidden away in the world adjacent to our own. To get them back he'll need the blood of a guardian - those in control of the veil between worlds. With her family gone, Prim is the only one left. A year ago she slipped through his fingers and off the radar, but now that Rivers has found her again he won't stop until she has opened the world for him.

Operating under the assumption that she will be compliant - broken by the combination of her family's death and a year on the run - Rivers sets out with the simple plan of kidnapping Prim and forcing her to agree. He soon realizes just how gravely he's misjudged her. Capturing Prim will be easy, but controlling her? Impossible.

But Rivers isn't the only one hunting the last guardian. Can Prim dodge other threats, solve the murder of her family, and return to anonymity all while being haunted by the angry shade of her dead sister?
