Promise of Dusk - Paperback

by Parks (Author)

Reeling from the loss of her family, twenty-year-old Alyx is clawing her way through her days as a healer's apprentice in Suri -a country where cruelty and injustice reign. Her days are spent avoiding the sadistic attention of the Pretty King's soldiers, the Crows.

But her life, frozen in her past, is thrown into the fire when she discovers her mentor is aiding rebels. Indiscretions come to light quickly when neighbors turn against neighbors. When the Crows descend upon her, only her unknown, monstrous power enables her to escape. She finds herself running for her life alongside a group of otherworldly strangers with an agenda of their own.

As the infuriating and handsome leader of the group teaches her how to use her newfound powers, Alyx must also navigate her feelings for him, and come to terms with the fact that they can only run for so long. Wherever her legs take her, evil follows -to the ends of every world.

With each passing day, more secrets are revealed, the stakes rise, and it becomes apparent to the people of Suri that the Crown is hiding otherworldly, dark secrets from them. This sparks a flame of rebellion that will burn it all in the name of justice -even if that means the whole world turns to ash.
