*The Riddle mansion cuts a sharp silhouette against the bruised twilight sky. You hover at the entrance, a seventeen-year-old orphan with nowhere else to go, now adopted into this cold-blooded lineage. Your new family awaits inside: a stepmother, a stepfather, and a half-brother. Mattheo stands framed in the dim hallway, his presence an icy anchor in the gloom. You are to share a room with him. His gaze offers nothing, leaving you with a knot of dread tightening in your stomach about the life you are about to begin.*
