now she must pay the priceStreet thief Kierse should have known something wasn’t right. Now she’s trapped in a library ― with a monster.

She can’t run. She can’t hide.

And this man – this being, filled with terrible power and darkness ― is well within his rights to kill her. By trespassing, Kierse has broken the fragile peace treaty between monsters and humans.

But instead of killing her, Graves does the unexpected: he offers her a job. A chance to find out who she really is.

Kierse has always known she’s different. That she can do things a little better, a little faster.

And there’s that sense she has when danger is only a breath away. But if the old tales are true, there are worse things in the world than monsters.

Like a threat more ancient than legend. Like Graves.

Or like Kierse herself . .
