Evie is now queen of the protectors and rumored queen of the demons as well, but dealing with the black magic she can’t control is far more dangerous than either of those titles. The protectors have fallen, demons along with them, and earth is not far behind. Can Nix, Trex, Connor, and Azi help Evie survive a power no one understands? And that no one knows how to stop? With random portals opening everywhere on earth, a war to be won, and Cex tracking her every move, can the assassin-now-queen win the war?

When a royal family she didn't know anything about goes missing, Evie finds herself thrown into the royal court of the protectors, and they demand her help. Help in exchange for a chance at freedom and the name that's haunted her, forgotten. A name she can’t even read, a name she doesn’t understand.

Evie survived a trip to hell, literally, to find herself somewhere even more dangerous: with the angels - angels who do not want to let her leave, not without paying a price for the life they saved. Angels. Demons. Protectors and more secrets than one world should hold. Who can Evie trust when everything is a lie? When it’s time for the assassin to return, and to claim what is hers, who will be on her side?

But it all goes sideways when someone asks for his help with a little demon problem. Harker knows there's no such thing as a little demon problem. He's right, of course, because his demon problem includes hellhounds, dragons, djinn, angels, artifacts, secret government agencies, and a high school prom.

The new grandmaster of Whitehall doesn't want Emily in his school. She's dangerous, he thinks.
