Evangeline has
spent her teenage years in obscurity. Her foster parents have the emotional
aptitude of robots and her classmates barely acknowledge her existence. About to
turn eighteen and feeling like a social pariah, she is desperate to connect with
someone. Anyone. When Evangeline
meets Sofie after literally stumbling upon her café, she believes she’s found
that connection. Willing to do anything to keep it, she accepts a job as Sofie’s
assistant and drops everything to fly to Manhattan, where she is thrust into a
luxurious world of Prada, diamonds, and limitless cash. With such
generosity and kindness, it’s easy for Evangeline to dismiss certain oddities .
. . like Sofie’s erratic and sometimes violent behavior, and the monstrous guard
dogs. She’s even willing to dismiss her vivid dreams of mob-style murders,
beautiful homeless people living in caves, and white-eyed demons that haunt her
each night as figments of her imagination—especially when one of those figments
is the gorgeous Caden. When she wakes up with bite marks on her neck, the fairy
tale quickly turns into a nightmare. She slowly unravels the mystery surrounding
Sofie and friends, and the reality of the bites and the “dreams.” What she
discovers is far more mysterious and terrible than anything she could have
imagined. In a world where
everyone has motive to lie for personal gain, Evangeline must decide which
deception is least likely to get her killed
