A brutal war between demons and humanity has raged across an alternate Europe for over a century. At its heart, two elite soldiers: Selene Alleva, a powerful exorcist running from a dark legacy, and orphan Jules Lacroix, recruited by the Vatican army and unrivalled in battle. When their paths unexpectedly cross, despite initial distrust ? then unwelcome attraction ? Jules and Selene realise they can use each other to unlock the secrets of their pasts. But the truth suggests a sinister conspiracy at the heart of the Vatican . . . With each new discovery, Jules is forced to question everything he?s ever known ? including himself. And Selene, unable to ignore her growing feelings for Jules, must make an impossible choice between love and duty. They say love conquers all, but can it win in a war between demons and exorcists ? or might it just tear them all apart . . ?
