A Portion of Malice

Lloyd Jeffries
Historical Fiction

An ancient prophecy. A billionaire with a dark secret. A journalist on the brink of despair.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Emery Merrick is ready to end it all—until a knock at the door changes everything. Thaddeus Drake, a powerful billionaire, offers him one final assignment: write his biography. But Emery soon discovers Drake isn’t just a wealthy mogul—he’s the leader of an ancient secret society bent on fulfilling a prophecy that will sacrifice the world to a bloodthirsty god.

Plunged into a hidden war of immortals, deception, and unspeakable darkness, Emery must confront the terrifying truth about humanity’s fate—and his own role in it.

A Portion of Malice is a visionary, mind-bending thriller that challenges everything you thought you knew about spirituality, redemption, and the apocalypse. Award-winning and unforgettable, this is the first book in the Ages of Malice series.
