Phantasm

Cecilia Van Der Meer spent years running from the Exodus, a secret society she holds responsible for destroying her family. Now she is back, and she wants revenge. Her aim is to do as much damage as she can to the organisation.

Every ten years the Exodus holds the Reckoning, a deadly gathering where its members play sinister games. Cecilia plans to get inside this exclusive event and kill the people behind it. She has decided that nothing will stop her.

Darian Delacroix is an Elder of the Exodus, and he has already marked her. Cecilia is heiress to one of the largest fortunes in the country, and her father is the Elder who brought about the ruin of Darian's family. That makes her a target, and Darian believes she is now caught in his web. He means to break her as her father broke his people.

The story is told in alternating voices, Cecilia's and Darian's, in a dark romance of vengeance and obsession. Each of them is hunting the other, and the line between love and revenge starts to blur. Darian puts the choice to her bluntly: marry him or die.
