เรื่องย่อ
Would you trade your soul mate for your soul?
A Shadowhunter’s life is bound by duty. Constrained by honor. The word of a Shadowhunter is a solemn pledge, and no vow is more sacred than the vow that binds parabatai, warrior partners—sworn to fight together, die together, but never to fall in love.
Emma Carstairs has learned that the love she shares with her parabatai, Julian Blackthorn, isn’t just forbidden—it could destroy them both. She knows she should run from Julian. But how can she when the Blackthorns are threatened by enemies on all sides?
Their only hope is the Black Volume of the Dead, a spell book of terrible power. Everyone wants it. Only the Blackthorns can find it. Spurred on by a dark bargain with the Seelie Queen, Emma; her best friend, Cristina; and Mark and Julian Blackthorn journey into the Courts of Faerie, where glittering revels hide bloody danger and no promise can be trusted. Meanwhile, rising tension between Shadowhunters and Downworlders has produced the Cohort, an extremist group of Shadowhunters dedicated to registering Downworlders and “unsuitable” Nephilim. They’ll do anything in their power to expose Julian’s secrets and take the Los Angeles Institute for their own.
When Downworlders turn against the Clave, a new threat rises in the form of the Lord of Shadows—the Unseelie King, who sends his greatest warriors to slaughter those with Blackthorn blood and seize the Black Volume. As dangers close in, Julian devises a risky scheme that depends on the cooperation of an unpredictable enemy. But success may come with a price he and Emma cannot even imagine, one that will bring with it a reckoning of blood that could have repercussions for everyone and everything they hold dear.

REVIEW
เอ็มม่าแสร้งทำเป็นว่ารักกับมาร์คก็เพื่อจะทำให้จูเลี่ยนเลิกรักเธอ แต่เขาทำไม่ได้ เพราะเอ็มม่าคือคนเดียวที่เขาต้องการ และเมื่อเหล่าเซนจูเรียนได้เดินทางมายังสถาบันเพื่อล่าหาร่างของมัลคอม เฟธที่เอ็มม่าเป็นคนสังหาร เรื่องแปลกๆก็เกิดขึ้น สัตว์ประหลาดใต้ทะเลขึ้นมาเกยฝั่งและคุกคามชีวิตผู้คน นี่อาจจะเป็นเวทมนตร์บางอย่างที่ไม่มีใครรู้ก็เป็นไปได้
