Juliette Cai is the proud heir of the Scarlet Gang - a network of criminals far above the law.
Roma Montagov is the prodigal son of her greatest rivals, the White Flowers, who have fought the Scarlets for generations. He is also Juliette's first love… and first betrayal.
When a deadly madness strikes gangsters on both sides, the people start to whisper. Of a contagion, and a monster in the shadows. And as the deaths stack up, Juliette and Roma must set their guns - and grudges - aside and work together.”

Roma is still reeling from Marshall's death, and his cousin Benedikt will barely speak to him. Roma blames himself for letting Juliette into his life, and he's determined to set things right - even if that means killing the girl he hates and loves with equal measure.
Then a new monstrous danger emerges in the city. Shanghai is at boiling point: the Nationalists are marching in, whispers of civil war are brewing, and gangster rule faces complete annihilation. Roma and Juliette must put aside their differences to combat monsters and politics, but they aren't prepared for the biggest threat of all: protecting their hearts from each other.”
