NEVER BARGAIN WITH A REAPER. The city of Aravell is in peril, plagued by a deadly blackmist that kills all it touches and reapers who roam the streets, leaving a trail of bodies in their wake. Seventeen-year-old reaper hunter Viridia Solace has made it her life's mission to capture their leader - the man who murdered her parents - but the notorious Reaper Priest has eluded the best hunters on Elverdine Isle for years. Until now. When the Priest's right-hand man, Reeve Ashton, is captured, he offers Viri a chance to avenge her parents . . . for a price. She knows better than to bargain with a reaper, especially this one, but his offer is too good to resist. Only, trusting Reeve comes with a heavy cost, and soon Viri risks losing everything . . . including her heart.
