James and Cordelia must save London - and their marriage - in this thrilling and "fiendishly
romantic" ( Kirkus Reviews ) conclusion to The Last Hours series. From the #1 New York Times
internationally bestselling romantasy author Cassandra Clare. Cordelia Carstairs has lost
everything that matters to her. In only a few short weeks she has seen her father murdered
her plans to become parabatai with her best friend Lucie destroyed and her marriage to James
Herondale crumble before her eyes. Even worse she is now bound to an ancient demon Lilith
stripping her of her power as a Shadowhunter. After fleeing to Paris with Matthew Fairchild
Cordelia hopes to forget her sorrows in the city's glittering nightlife. But reality intrudes
when shocking news comes from home: Tatiana Blackthorn has escaped the Adamant Citadel and
London is under new threat by the Prince of Hell Belial . Cordelia returns to a London riven
by chaos and dissent. The long-kept secret that Belial is James and Lucie's grandfather has
been revealed by an unexpected enemy and the Herondales find themselves under suspicion of
dealings with demons. Cordelia longs to protect James but is torn between a love for James she
has long believed hopeless and the possibility of a new life with Matthew. Nor can her friends
help - ripped apart by their own secrets they seem destined to face what is coming alone. For
time is short and Belial's plan is about to crash into the Shadowhunters of London like a
deadly wave one that will separate Cordelia Lucie and the Merry Thieves from help of any
kind. Left alone in a shadowy London they must face Belial's deadly army. If Cordelia and her
friends are going to save their city - and their families - they will have to muster their
courage swallow their pride and trust one another again. For if they fail they may lose
everything - even their souls. LOOK OUT FOR THE WICKED POWERS - COMING IN 2026. AVAILABLE TO
