About This Book
Reach for this book when your teen is grappling with a betrayal of trust or is struggling to reconcile the loyalty they feel for a friend with that person's harmful actions. This concluding volume of the Larten Crepsley saga finds our vampire protagonist facing his most devastating realization yet: that the greatest threat to his world comes from within his own inner circle. Set against the looming shadow of World War II, the story explores the heavy price of duty and the agonizing choice between personal love and the greater good. It is a dark, gritty exploration of grief and moral complexity. While the vampire elements provide a supernatural edge, the core of the book is deeply human, focusing on the pain of outgrowing long-standing relationships and the courage required to stand alone for what is right. It is best suited for mature readers who enjoy historical settings and are ready for a narrative that does not shy away from emotional or physical violence.
