When fifteen-year-old Ciarán Morrigan eavesdrops on a conversation between his father and two mysterious strangers, his life—and the life of his little sister, Remiel—is changed forever. After their father makes a startling decision, the Morrigan siblings are forced to flee the only life they've ever known and embark on a dangerous adventure across the nation of Empirya. With the enlisted help of a disinherited vagabond, a cynical violinist, a fire-juggler with a fierce temper, an aspiring mechanic, and a cheerful librarian, Ciarán and Remiel must fight to escape the clutches of lethal pursuers. Their journey carries them through smog-filled cities, dark forests, humble towns, and perilous mountains, but will Remiel's dark secret and ghosts from the past prevent the Morrigan children from finding a place they can truly call home?

Excerpt

The man in the chair fidgeted. I still couldn’t see his face, but his voice was deep and
rich. “You mean to tell me that your twelve-year- old daughter is responsible for the death of
your wife? Forgive me, Ernest, but this sounds a little… far-fetched.”

My father ran a hand through his tangled, graying hair. “I assure you, Maverick,
Dahlia…” He looked at them in turn. “This is no deception. I curse the day that child was born!”
“Ernest,” the woman—Dahlia—said, “I know the papers didn’t go into detail about your
wife’s death, but I find it hard to believe that your daughter—”

“She is at fault!” Father insisted. “My wife was not the first victim. There have been
others. That demon must be stopped before she kills anyone else!”
Others. I knew what Father meant, but none of it had been Remiel’s fault.
The man in the chair chuckled. “I must say, Ernest, from what I’ve seen in pictures, the
girl greatly resembles—”

“I know!” Father slammed a fist on his desk. “I know what she looks like! But she
deserves this, for killing my wife! For killing her own mother!”
Anger stewed in my chest. I wanted to storm into the room and defend my little sister, but
the next snippet of conversation rooted my feet to the carpet.

“And your son?” the man asked. “What has he to do with this?”

Father buried his face in his hands, and his voice was muffled by his fingers.

“I don’t want Ciarán involved.”

His words provided no consolation. If Father wished harm on Remiel, he was
condemning me along with her.

“This is an unusual proposition, Ernest,” Dahlia purred, “but for the right price, I’m sure
we can arrange something. I have the perfect associate in mind to give the job to. She specializes
in quieter methods of her trade.” She smoothed one hand over the man’s shoulder. “Wouldn’t
you agree, darling?”

The man in the chair—Maverick—drummed his fingers on the armrest. After an
agonizing pause, he drew himself up to his full, towering height, and I saw a man whose image I
would never forget.

“You have a deal, Ernest.”

He reached a hand toward Father, who grasped it in a desperate handshake.

“We will kill your daughter for you.”

Author Bio:
Hi guys! 
My name is Simone, most know me as Explode. My passions are writing, tattoos and my family. Writing to me, is an outlet. I write every day, regardless of my mood or commitments. I can’t say I get inspiration for my books. They come to me out of nowhere and then I plot it out and before I know it I’m ten chapters deep.
Writing is an art and I think everyone has a story in them but only certain people are able to tell them. 

Book Review by Carmen:
I didn't think that I was going to enjoy this book due to it's dark atmosphere, but surprisingly I did. One thing I will say is that there seems to be repetitive actions that all the characters seem to do, and I found that a bit frustrating at times. I also found Jackson Johnston's behaviour strange at times. Overall, I gave this book a four star rating and got a copy in exchange for an honest review.
