The Lord of Shadows

In the world of Shadowhunters there is an unbreakable law: Never fall in love with your parabatai. Emma Carstairs has discovered that her feelings for Julian are not only forbidden, but may even have destructive consequences on a large scale. She must distance herself from him, she has to cool her feelings. But how to do it just when Julian needs her more than ever? Their only hope is the Black Book of the Dead, a compendium of spells with terrible power. Everyone wants it, but only the Blackthorns can find it. Immersed in an adventure full of magic and deception, the powerful Shadow Lord will cross their path: mysterious and unpredictable, he can be both an excellent ally and the worst enemy they have ever faced. As the dangers intensify, Emma, Julian and their companions will understand that what is at stake are not their lives, but the balance between mundanes and Shadowhunters. Everything is possible when the doors to the forbidden are opened.
