For thousands of years, The Council has watched over the magical community. Consisting of Venators, Vigilum and Concilium, each group is dedicated to the task of keeping the human race oblivious to the magical beings all around them. The rules are simple--keep your abilities to yourself, or pay the ultimate price.

Upon her twenty-first birthday, Leana Hunter will claim her birthright, taking her place with the other Vigilum within The Council--no matter how much she detests the idea. Though this is not a life she wants, she already knows too much and she will be eliminated if she refuses to follow through on her duties.

Madalien MacElroy's family has already fallen prey to the dark side of The Council. Her parents were murdered in the privacy of their own home, leaving Maddie as the legal guardian of her thirteen year-old sister, Maura.

What Leana and Maddie don't know is that they're on opposing sides of a brewing war. When secrets are revealed and betrayals unfold, will the girls’ friendship survive? Or will duty overtake their bond?
