Charlie Hall is a skilled thief who has spent years working for gloamists—magicians who manipulate shadows to spy, steal, and kill.

When a dangerous figure from her history resurfaces, Charlie is dragged back into a web of murder, secrets, and doppelgängers. To survive, she must outmaneuver ruthless magicians and protect the people she loves from a conspiracy to control the shadow world.
