The Nightshade

The world is at war. Hattie’s most dangerous mission is about to begin.

Hattie has spent years learning how to survive in a world of secrets. Now, with war reshaping everything around her, the lines between personal loyalty and national duty become impossible to ignore.

When family, espionage, and a far-reaching conspiracy collide, Hattie must draw on everything she has learned—and everyone she has come to trust—to uncover the truth before it is too late.

The Nightshade brings Hattie's journey to its most expansive and dangerous chapter, where the stakes are no longer confined to one mission or one family.
