Nicole Palmer¿s secret powers are invaluable. As an Empyreal, she harbours the ability to destroy dangerous creatures, an ability The Wake -a shadowy organisation that governs all supernatural creatures- will stop at no lengths to weaponize. Dormant for now, Nicole knows if her powers were to be triggered she¿d suffer the same deadly fate as her mother.
To stay safe from The Wake and find a final encoded message from her mother, Nicole secures a role researching the supernatural art collection at the local Cornish manor. But when Kyan McCarter, The Wake¿s most skilled Empyreal and perhaps Nicole¿s greatest enemy, is stationed there to track a deadly creature, they are forced to work together to stop a painting falling into the wrong hands.
As their hunt for the creature progresses,it threatens to expose Nicole¿s powers, and her tenuous alliance with Kyan begins to threaten her heart. If Nicole¿s true identity is revealed, Kyan will hunt her next. No one disobeys The Wake and survives.
