The decadently compelling, darkly romantic second instalment in the #1 New York Times bestselling Immortal Dark trilogy, now available in a deluxe collector's edition hardback featuring a stunning updated cover, foil-stamped slipcase, sprayed edges and exclusive internal art!

Like all ruinous things, he came from the abyss.

Kidan Adane has finally embraced her darkness. She's killed without remorse, broken Uxlay University's most sacred law by inviting elusive rogue vampires, the Nefrasi, into their campus, and made a truce with the one vampire she swore she'd never trust - Susenyos Sagad.

Trapped with a violently unstable vampire and reeling from her sister's return, Kidan wields her anger like a weapon. She vows to master her house and protect the sacred artefact hidden within, even if it means forging an alliance with the depraved leader of the Nefrasi, Samson Sagad - and betraying Susenyos in the process.

When Kidan stumbles across a dangerous new philosophical text, it seems to hold the answers she seeks and promises the very thing she has lost: control. As the dark pages consume her, Kidan realises no soul at Uxlay is trustworthy - least of all Susenyos. For Kidan and Susenyos, the lines of loathing and attraction may blur, but the quest for power rules them both. And neither is willing to surrender.

As devastating secrets resurface from the past, Kidan and her sister, June, must finally confront each other and take their rightful places in the looming war.

THE SECOND INSTALMENT IN THE DELICIOUSLY DARK, DANGEROUSLY ROMANTIC BLACK VAMPIRE TRILOGY, FROM #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, TIGEST GIRMA.

Praise for Immortal Dark:

'A darkly compelling story that sinks its teeth in you and doesn't let go. With a layered plot that keeps you guessing and morally grey characters you can't help but root for, Immortal Dark is an enthralling, masterful debut. I'm obsessed' Pascale Lacelle, New York Times-bestselling author of Curious Tide

'A decadent dark academia fantasy that's as entrancing as it is haunting. With enthralling characters, a thrilling plot, and a delicious mystery, Tigest Girma serves up vampires like never before seen.' Nia Davenport, award-winning Author of The Blood Gift Duology

'Intoxicating, compelling, and violently romantic, Immortal Dark demands to be made an obsession. With lush and impactful prose, Girma spins a tale of love and fury that aches in all the right places. This is, quite simply, the enemies-to-lovers story you've been waiting for.' M.K. Lobb, author of Seven Faceless Saints
