    Summary

    Hi, my name is Juliet. I’m 16 years old, and I carry a secret that no one can ever know. I am a protector, a shadow in the dark, keeping people safe who don’t even realize they are in danger. My family knows—they worry, of course—but they understand that this is my purpose, my calling. It’s what makes me feel alive.

    I’ve been everywhere, across the world, forming alliances, building trust, ensuring that if I ever need to disappear, I have a place to go. Today, that call came. One of my contacts in London, Bubba, warned me that someone was being targeted. There was no time to waste.

    But I still have a life to maintain—a normal life. School, friends, expectations. My friend helped cover for me, convincing the principal that I was leaving on an ordinary trip. If only they knew.
