Thief of Night

The highly-anticipated sequel to the no. 1 Sunday Times bestselling dark fantasy sensation, Book of Night. Can you protect yourself from your shadow? Charlie Hall used to be a talented con artist and thief - until her last job nearly killed her. Instead of walking away, she bartered her freedom to the Cabal, a ruthless circle of elite gloamists who trapped Charlie's boyfriend, the powerful shadow named Vince. As the Cabal's new Hierophant, Charlie hunts rogue shadows on their behalf - not out of loyalty, but because it keeps Vince out of their hands. Or, at least, what's left of him. The tether that binds Charlie and Vince erased every memory he had of her, leaving behind only Red - a dangerous Blight with Vince's face. Cold, ruthless, and angry, Red doesn't trust Charlie; he doesn't like her, so when she's pressed into service by the Cabal's most manipulative member, the Puppeteer, she's on her own. Charlie's no investigator, just a thief in over her head, sent to track down the Blight behind a brutal church massacre. And worse, her own shadow is making plans to betray her. Vulnerable, heartbroken, and magically outmatched, Charlie has one last chance to save herself, but the price might be the one person she thought she couldn't bear to lose.

The highly-anticipated sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black's stunning adult debut, Book of Night . Night is made of shadows and shadows have teeth. Charlie Hall, glue trap for disaster, crooked from the day she was born, who'd never met a bad decision she wasn't willing to double down on, may have finally met her match. After defeating Salt and stealing her lover--the powerful shadow, Vince--back from under the noses of the powerful Cabal leaders, she thought she'd won. Agreeing to become the Hierophant and risking her life hunting down dangerous rogue shadows seemed a small price to pay if she got to do it while being tethered to Vince. But Vince is no longer the man she loved. The tethering process wiped away his memories of the last year, leaving only Red--the ruthless shadow who spent years as a killer for a cruel, mercurial billionaire. Red doesn't remember Charlie and doesn't like her. So when Charlie is ordered to track down the Blight responsible for a massacre at a local church, she's worse than just alone, heartbroken, and outmatched. She's vulnerable. In a world where shadows have wills of their own, the question isn't just how to survive. It's how to protect yourself from the on thing you can never escape--your own shadow.
