A teenage assassin, a demanding father, What will she do when her most trusted betrays her?

Hiding what she wants is second nature to Lyra. Raised as the only child, and a lowly daughter of the head of her clan, Lyra dreams of being an assassin.

When her father commands the first assassin class in twenty-years to assemble, Lyra jumps on the chance to join them on the sly.

When her classmates have gone missing on their last assignment, she is despondent. Mounting evidence suggests the missing class may be linked to something much more personal than she imagined.

Desperate. Guilty. Devastated.

Her only recourse is to do the unthinkable — resort to sabotage to unravel the mystery.

Lyra must become the villain to be a hero.
