Since the death of her twin sister two years before Charlies Hudson has drifted through life until the day her classmate goes missing.
Drawn to the disappearances by forces she can't explain, Charlie soon finds herself investigating the mysterious, alluring newcomer in town, Elias Everhart.
She knows Elias is hiding something, but what she doesn't know.
Soon his secrets will lead her to a place she never imagined: a world hiding in plain sight, made of magic, gods, and monsters-and a first love fated to fall apart

Oh cool… I’m in love with a fictional subhuman bad boy again. This shimmering romantasy is twisty, addictive, and whimsically wicked. Emma Noyes renders worlds in colors I’ve never seen before, and Soul of Shadow gave me butterflies that bite.
