   Summary

   When Alec Lightwood is separated from his siblings under the guise of prestigious assignments, he begins to uncover cracks in everything he thought he knew, about the Clave, about leadership, and about his own family. As political tensions rise and dangerous secrets stir beneath the surface of Idris and New York, Alec and his siblings are forced to choose between loyalty and truth, legacy and integrity.
