Every Action has a consequence...

Lashdanôke, the Hidden City, shelters Preternaturals from human animosity. As their return to Earth looms, unrest grows, and the Heir of Lucifer is thrust into the spotlight.

     Kalista, the Born Angel of Light, Knowledge, and Truth, is a loner, by choice. Her emerging powers isolate her as those around her keep secrets and lie. Her mother is the only one who hasn’t lied to her. When Kalista follows her half-sister after school, her life is forever changed.

     Voices in her head and volatile new powers leave Kalista even more unsure of whom to trust. A Fallen Angel offers his help, but should she accept, or expect betrayal, and what will his help cost?

    The book that started it all!

    It opens with a prologue from the perspective of Beryx, a member of the Council of Fire, the then head of the Preternatural Judicial system. The prologue explains how time moves differently in Lashdanôke and why it does before sending you into the thick of Kalista's story.

    Kalista, heir of Lucifer has been fighting against stigmas, stereotypes, and prejudice her entire life. As the Heir of Light, Truth, and Knowledge, she has an insatiable need to gain as much knowledge as fast as she can, and find the truth hidden in even the most twisted of lies. This gets her into trouble more often than not: Firstly, for having information that she shouldn’t, and secondly, for being in places and talking with people that are deemed unfit or downright dangerous.

    In this book, we learn what led her to make a deal with the most wanted Demokæ (def. Fallen Angel) in existence for the truth about something that the Council of Spirits (the ruling government), her parents, and her teachers refused or couldn’t tell her. Thus, beginning her journey as the prophesied Eh Aknobas Charka (def. The Redeemer of the Broken), which is often corrupted to Charka Aknobas, the Broken Redeemer.

This leads to many a problem for the young heir with an old soul.
