In The Hidden City, survival is only the beginning.
Jewel “Jay” Markett has grown up in the slums of Averalaan, fighting for scraps and haunted by visions she can’t explain. When Rath, a loner with secrets of his own, pulls her from the brink of death, she finds both a reluctant guardian and a chance to build something resembling a family.
Jay gathers other lost children into a fragile den of safety. But safety in Averalaan is an illusion. Court intrigue circles ever closer, and the ancient demons that once nearly destroyed the empire are stirring again.
As politics sharpen into daggers and shadows whisper of war, Jay and Rath must decide if they’re strong enough to face enemies who have waited centuries to return.
