Inspired by the Persephone myth, this stunning conclusion to the Everneath trilogy, whose captivating first book earned a VOYA Perfect Ten of 2011 and a Whitney award, explores the resiliency of the human spirit and the indomitable power of true love. Perfect for fans of Fallen and Beautiful Creatures!

Now that Nikki has rescued Jack, all she wants is to be with him and graduate high school. But after being tricked by Cole, she's begun the process of turning into an Everliving herself . . . which means she must feed on a Forfeit soon—or die. Nikki and Jack begin a desperate attempt to reverse the process, using everything they can think of. Even Cole, who they expected to fight them at every turn, has become an unlikely ally—but for how long? Nikki needs to feed on Cole to survive, Cole needs Nikki to gain the throne in the Everneath, Jack needs Nikki because she is everything to him—and, together, they must travel back to the underworld to undo Nikki's fate and make her mortal once more.

Will Nikki be forced to spend eternity in the underworld—or does she have what it takes to bring down the Everneath once and for all?


  • Forced Proximity: She hates him for what he did, but now Nikki must feed on Cole to survive. He’s her enemy, her tormentor... and her only source of life.
  • Mythology Retelling: A heart-pounding modern take on the Persephone myth where the Underworld itself is a living, breathing entity that wants to claim Nikki forever.
  • An Unlikely Ally: Cole helped trap her in this fate, but now he’s the one person who can help her and Jack fight back. But can a boy who craves power ever truly be trusted?
  • Epic Series Finale: The breathtaking conclusion to the Everneath trilogy where the only way for Nikki to save herself and her love for Jack might be to bring the entire underworld crashing down.
