The Reaper

Morana Vitalio has just learned what links her to Tristan Caine, known as The Predator. He is a prized member of the Tenebrae mob, and he works for the clan that rivals her family. Tristan keeps himself tightly guarded, and Morana is set on getting past that wall.

When Tristan is called back to Tenebrae, she goes after him into enemy territory. More people want her dead there, and the danger grows with every step she takes into their city.

The two share a painful history that stretches back about twenty years, and Tristan feels bound to keep her safe. Together they look into the disappearance of several girls. That mystery turns out to be one piece of a much larger conflict.

As the line between enemy and ally blurs, trust becomes hard to place and survival depends on them working side by side. This is a dark mafia romance, with rival families and a protective hero at its centre. It is the second book in RuNyx's Dark Verse series, coming after The Predator and before The Emperor.
