For Bree Tanner, life is a constant state of fear and a relentless thirst for blood. She is a member of a growing army of newly turned vampires, manipulated by a leader they barely know and unleashed on the unsuspecting city of Seattle.

They realize they are pawns in a much larger game, and that everything they've been told about their existence is based on a lie. This novella explores the devastating story of the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, offering a view of the events from the other side of the battle. It is a look into the danger, mystery, and tragedy that unfolds from the perspective of a character fighting for truth in a life she never chose.
