The #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Sinner brings another hot adventure of true love and ultimate sacrifice
The location of the glymera's notorious prison camp was lost after the raids. When a freak accident provides Nyx clues to where her sister may still be doing time, she becomes determined to find the secret subterranean labyrinth. Embarking on a journey under the earth, she learns a terrible truth- and meets a male who changes everything, forever.
The Jackal has been in the camp for so long, he cannot recall anything of the freedom he once knew. Trapped by circumstances out of his control, he helps Nyx because he cannot help himself. After she discovers what happened to her sister, getting her back out becomes a deadly mission for them both.
United by a passion they can't deny, they work together on an escape plan for Nyx- even though their destiny is to be forever apart. And as the Black Dagger Brotherhood is called upon for help, and Rhage discovers he has a half-brother who's falsely imprisoned, a devious warden plots the deaths of them all... even the Brothers.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The first book of J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood spin-off series drops us into a grimy underworld prison and weaves a tale of lust and mystery that will excite existing fans and newcomers alike. Weary prisoner The Jackal finds a ray of hope in Nyx, a vampire who infiltrates the prison to save her sister. Their world connects with the Black Dagger Brotherhood through Rhage, who's digging up his family's secrets. The book's strengths lie in its atmospheric storytelling and Ward's skilful exploration of how new bonds and affection can be unearthed in even the most desolate places.
Customer Reviews
Persevere with this one
At page 92 I nearly stopped reading. There was too much I didn’t understand, and the world hadn’t been explained. All was revealed in time and the story had me hooked. I finished it at 3.25am happy to have its secrets revealed.
A spin-off to a new series with great characters both old and new.
A female goes looking for her imprisoned sister and uncovers a travesty. A prison made for those who sinned against or offended the Glymera is now under new control and financed by the slave labour of the prisoners. No-one gets released, there are no visitors and most of the Race have forgotten the prison existed as well as the inmates.
Amazing
J.R.Ward never disappoints.
