A covert mission turns personal—and revenge comes at a price.

Lilah Burns isn't the kind of occult librarian who lets things go. Not betrayal. Not rare magical books. Not the man who left her behind—and definitely not the manipulative new wife who thinks she's won.

When Lilah and her protective partner Raven are sent on a covert surveillance mission to retrieve ancient texts from her ex-boyfriend's house, things take a turn. The plan is simple: plant spy equipment, find the stolen grimoires, and get out clean.

But between unresolved feelings, emotional ghosts, and a deeply satisfying round of calculated revenge, Lilah's about to learn that emotional closure comes with a cost—and so does learning to trust again.
