#1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black steps into the adult fantasy realm with this dark, intoxicating tale of shadow magic, dangerous secrets, and impossible choices.
Charlie Hall is a thief who specializes in the impossible—picking locks that shouldn’t open, stealing grimoires that shouldn’t exist, working for gloamists who wield shadows like weapons. These magicians can peer through darkness into locked rooms, manipulate shadows to strangle enemies in their sleep, or commit acts far worse. And they need someone like Charlie to steal from each other.
But Charlie’s done with that life. Or trying to be. Now she’s bartending in the Berkshires, keeping her head down, and pretending her past doesn’t exist. Except her sister Posey is hungry for magic, her shadowless boyfriend Vince is keeping dangerous secrets, and the criminal underworld of gloamists won’t let her go so easily.
When a figure from her blood-soaked past resurfaces, Charlie is pulled into a deadly game involving doppelgangers, mercurial billionaires, and the people she loves most—all hunting for a secret that promises vast and terrible power.
“A delicious, dark, adrenaline rush of a book,” raves Alix E. Harrow. This is contemporary fantasy at its finest: morally complex characters, a magic system that feels both fresh and unsettling, and prose that crackles with tension. Perfect for fans of V.E. Schwab and Leigh Bardugo looking for something deliciously darker.
Now available in paperback—because some books deserve to be dog-eared and passed between friends with urgent recommendations.
