All Ren wants is to see another sunrise, but when you grow up with people cursing your very existence, that's easier said than done. As someone touched by the gods, she keeps far from the cities and the dangers they pose, preferring to keep to the endless and isolating sands of the Jahaer Desert. She's managed to keep the marks that identify her as a daemon out of sight for this long, but when her camp is raided, and her allies have fled, there's nowhere left to hide. Captured and taken to the heartless city of Denheir, Ren has only one goal-survival. She's never embraced her gift of sight, but now she might not have a choice. Face to face with the most notorious man on the Continent and his desire for the power coursing through her veins, Ren must decide: submit to the fate the gods have dealt her or fight. Good thing she's never been one to yield. With new threats at her back and old ones plaguing her dreams, Ren is thrust into a journey of self, survival, and new alliances as she tries to escape a life she never asked for. The future is murky, and though she's spent her whole life running from her gift, she just might realize that true power is as inevitable as the gods themselves.
