Synopsis

From the international bestselling author of *Powerless*, comes a sizzling and heart-racing new story set in the Kingdom of Ilya. Perfect for fans of *The Hunger Games* and *Fourth Wing*

Adena and Paedyn have always been inseparable. Fate brought them together when they were young, but friendship ensured they'd always protect each other and the home they built in the slums of Loot. But now Paedyn - an Ordinary - has been selected for The Purging Trials, which means almost certain death.

Now alone in Loot, Adena must fend for herself. After attempting to steal, it's a mysterious man from the market who comes to her rescue. Mak's shadowy past and secretive power
