Summary

"Cordelia Carstairs has lost everything that matters to her. In only a few short weeks, she has seen her father murdered, her plans to become parabatai with her best friend, Lucie, destroyed, and her marriage to James Herondale crumble. Even worse, she is now bound to a powerful demon, Lilith, stripping her of her power as a Shadowhunter. After fleeing to Paris with Matthew Fairchild, Cordelia hopes to drown her sorrows in the city{u2019}s glittering nightlife. But reality intrudes when shocking news comes from home: Tatiana Blackthorn has escaped the Adamant Citadel and London is threatened by the Prince of Hell, Belial. Cordelia returns to a London in chaos. The secret that Belial is James and Lucie{u2019}s grandfather has been revealed, and the Herondales are under suspicion. Cordelia is torn between a love for James she believes is hopeless and the possibility of a life with Matthew. And her friends are ripped apart by their own secrets. Time is short, and Belial{u2019}s plan is about to crash into the Shadowhunters like a deadly wave, one that will separate Cordelia, Lucie, and the Merrie Thieves from help of any kind. If Cordelia and her friends are going to save their city {u2013} and their families {u2013} they will have to muster their courage, swallow their pride, and trust one another again. For if they fail, they may lose everything {u2013} even their souls." --, Inside front jacket flap
