In Charlie Hall’s world, shadows can be altered, for entertainment and cosmetic preferences—but also to increase power and influence. You can alter someone’s feelings—and memories—but manipulating shadows has a cost, with the potential to take hours or days from your life. Your shadow holds all the parts of you that you want to keep hidden—a second self, standing just to your left, walking behind you into lit rooms. And sometimes, it has a life of its own.
Charlie is a low-level con artist, working as a bartender while trying to distance herself from the powerful and dangerous underground world of shadow trading. She gets by doing odd jobs for her patrons and the naive new money in her town at the edge of the Berkshires. But when a terrible figure from her past returns, Charlie’s present life is thrown into chaos, and her future seems at best, unclear—and at worst, non-existent. Determined to survive, Charlie throws herself into a maelstrom of secrets and murder, setting her against a cast of doppelgängers, mercurial billionaires, shadow thieves, and her own sister—all desperate to control the magic of the shadows.

Holly Black
Jude era solo una bimba quando i suoi genitori furono brutalmente assassinati. Fu allora che sia lei che le sue sorelle vennero rapite e condotte nel profondo della foresta, nel mondo magico.
Dieci anni dopo, l’orrore e i ricordi di quel giorno lontano e terribile ormai sfocati, Jude, ora diciassettenne, è stanca di essere maltrattata da tutti e soprattutto vuole sentirsi finalmente parte del luogo in cui è cresciuta, poco importa se non le scorre nemmeno una goccia di sangue magico nelle vene. Ma le creature che le stanno intorno disprezzano gli umani. E in particolare li disprezza il principe Cardan, il figlio più giovane e crudele del Sommo Re.
Per ottenere un posto a corte, perciò, Jude sarà costretta a scontrarsi proprio con lui, e nel farlo, a mano a mano che si ritroverà invischiata negli intrighi e negli inganni di palazzo, scoprirà la sua propensione naturale per l’inganno e gli spargimenti di sangue. Quando però si affaccia all’orizzonte il pericolo di una guerra civile che potrebbe far sprofondare la corte in una spirale di violenza, Jude non ha esitazioni. Per salvare il mondo in cui vive è pronta a rischiare il tutto per tutto.
