So when a wealthy family opens their home and offers a fresh start, Lenore gladly accepts by hiding her true identity...

Visited by a mysterious crime lord bearing a magical oath and a stark warning, Lenore fears not even her fake persona can shield her from the coming danger. With an oppressive high-society code and the threat of an assassin's blade weighing on her mind, one wrong move could bring her world of lies crashing down.

Can Lenore find the courage to forge her own path, or will she be doomed to a life of perpetual torment?
