Mary's quiet life in Virgo, marked only by the occasional Festival of the Twelve, takes an unexpected turn when she is chosen alongside four strangers for the next enigmatic ritual. Thrust into the unfamiliar world of Asmodore, she becomes entangled in a deadly conflict between an endangered race and those determined to eradicate it--all while battling a sinister presence within herself that threatens her very sanity. As Mary and the other chosen teens journey toward one of Asmodore's so-called "great" cities, they are forced to confront unspeakable horrors armed only with their resolve and commitment to uncovering the truth.
