The End is Just the Beginning... College is a lonely place when you transfer mid semester to escape the aftermath of a tragedy and your roommate is less than welcoming. Farren stands teetering on the edge of a bridge when she is rescued from falling at the last moment by a mysterious man. Suddenly, she finds herself in a fight for her life.

A Coven soon begins hunting her but not before their ancient enemy, the Guard, notices. In the aftermath, Farren receives an offer she can't refuse – to train as an Assassin but she soon uncovers a secret which makes her a commodity to both the Guard and the vampires...
