Description
Charlie Hall has never found a lock she couldn't pick, a book she couldn't steal, or a bad decision she wouldn't make. She's spent half her life working for gloamists, magicians who manipulate shadows to peer into locked rooms, strangle people in their beds, or worse. Gloamists guard their secrets greedily, creating an underground economy of grimoires. And to rob their fellow magicians, they need Charlie. Now, she's trying to distance herself from past mistakes, but going straight isn't easy. Bartending at a dive, she's still entirely too close to the corrupt underbelly of the Berkshires. Not to mention that her sister Posey is desperate for magic, and that her shadowless and possibly soulless boyfriend has been keeping secrets from her. When a terrible figure from her past returns, Charlie descends back into a maelstrom of murder and lies. Determined to survive, she's up against a cast of doppelg�angers, mercurial billionaires, gloamists, and the people she loves best in the world - all trying to steal a secret that will allow them control of the shadow world and more.
Description
No hay cerradura que Charlie Hall no pueda abrir, libro que no pueda robar ni mala decisión que no esté dispuesta a tomar. Se ha pasado media vida trabajando para los umbristas, personas capaces de manipular las sombras para colarse en habitaciones cerradas con llave, estrangular a alguien mientras duerme o hacer cosas incluso peores. El gran celo con el que los umbristas guardan sus secretos ha creado un mercado clandestino de grimorios. Y para robar a sus rivales... necesitan a Charlie Hall. Aunque últimamente Charlie se esfuerza por alejarse de los errores de su pasado, no resulta fácil hacerlo cuando una trabaja como camarera en un antro de mala muerte, demasiado cerca de los corruptos bajos fondos de los Berkshires. Por no mencionar que su hermana Posey está desesperada por convertirse en umbrista y que Vince, el novio de Charlie (que carece de sombra y tal vez incluso de alma), le oculta algo. El regreso de una terrible figura de su pasado desencadena un torbellino de muertes y mentiras en el que Charlie se ve envuelta. Decidida a sobrevivir, tendrá que vérselas con dobles, multimillonarios caprichosos, umbristas e incluso con las personas que más quiere en el mundo; todos ansían apoderarse de un secreto capaz de otorgarles un poder inmenso y terrible.
