    About this ebook

    On the tidally locked planet of Psyche, humans control the sun-lit sections of the world—and monsters rule the dark.

    Century after century, millennia after millennia, the dividing line between these two opposite realms—the Fringe—was thought to be nothing more than a wasteland, a place no living being could possibly survive. But the Fringe has never been a lifeless place, and the shapeshifting, predatory races who call the Fringe home are determined to defend their territory. Even if the greatest threat comes from within.

    Centuries ago, the Grand Accord put an end to the constant warfare between the Shifters of the Fringe and the Wytes of the Everdark. The agreement was simple: Shifters don't kill Wytes in their lands, and Wytes don't kill Shifters in theirs. But the predators on both sides have been biding their time, waiting for the slightest provocation to justify more bloodshed.

    Then forty-five Wolves, found trespassing on Wyte lands, were brutally murdered in cold blood. With both sides crying out for retribution, the already fragile peace threatens to shatter altogether, reigniting a war that will pit Shifter claws against Wyte fangs for the first time in two centuries.

    But Wytes aren't the only monsters in the dark—and they're not the only predators out for blood. A new threat rises from the north...and it may prove to be everyone's downfall.
