In a world overrun by monstrous beings, humanity clings to survival within camps governed by a brutal system of sacrifice. Seraphina, a resilient young woman haunted by her parents' mysterious deaths, finds herself drawn into a web of resistance against the ruling Syndicate, who exploit the fragile balance between human survival and monstrous hunger. At the center of this conflict is Felix, a conflicted Syndicator who protects one of the last human camps—but at a terrible cost. His power, necessary for the camp's survival, is sustained by human sacrifices, drawn from the camp when his strength begins to wane. As Seraphina rises to leadership, she struggles with the weight of her new responsibilities, the shadowy resistance her father secretly built, and her growing connection to Felix—a monster who may hold the key to saving humanity or destroying it altogether. Together, they must navigate betrayal, survival, and the deadly games of control within the Syndicate's oppressive rule. As they uncover the dark secrets of the Overseer's regime, Seraphina must decide how far she is willing to go to bring freedom to her people—at the risk of losing everything.
