In a kingdom where anything sacred or spiritual is banned by law, Eva, the daughter of freedom fighters, accidentally exposes her family as Traitors when she’s caught praying. Her parents are put to death for her crime. Seeking redemption for her carelessness, Eva struggles to find her twin sister and escape from the prison camp they’ve both been placed in. But after her latest failed attempt, her captor, Lord Marcus, rips out her soul in a brutal ceremony using a cursed black knife named the Fallen’s Kiss.
A chilling numbness threatens to overwhelm Eva, and no matter what she does, Lord Marcus is always near, following her, determined in his quest to purge the world of the divine.
Eva must destroy the Fallen’s Kiss to get her soul back and save her sister, but she has no idea where to look or how to do it—just that its ruin can only be brought about by someone who understands the true nature of the human soul. If she fails, her sister will be stuck in Traitor’s Prison and Eva will be lost forever, utterly destroyed.
