Book 1 of the whittam chronicles
Ten years ago, their city burned around them. Now, they stand on opposite sides of a country crumbling into war.
All Catrice Aetos knows is life on the run. The daughter of a Prophet murdered by the king, she has spent her time hiding her identity and protecting her people – the Creator’s Followers – from the Throne’s persecution. When she’s discovered by the king’s soldiers, her only hope to survive and save the Followers seems to be a familiar face she thought died long ago.
Blaze Laskaris is a High Crow, an elite soldier of the king, but after an assignment goes horribly wrong, he finds himself face-to-face with the daughter of the most wanted family in the country. His only choice is to remain undercover, convince her to trust him, and hunt the last of the Followers down.
Their worlds collide, each forced to question their beliefs and loyalties while their hearts and minds war against the other. All the while, something else is lurking in the shadows… someone else is watching who will change the future of Whittam forever.

A hunted Follower determined to change.
Catrice Aetos is done running. Months after learning the truth about Blaze, she finds herself out of options and working in the underbelly of Whittam. Grappling with doubts and tired of hiding who she is, she discovers a mentor in the most unlikely of places—someone who is willing to do whatever it takes for Catrice to become the powerful Aetos heir she was always meant to be.
A deserting High Crow set on revenge.
Blaze Laskaris has one final mission: kill the White Owl and leave Whittam forever. But when another High Crow is murdered, he is forced to return to the High Nest where secrets abound and memories threaten to break him. All the while, something else is stirring inside of him, and the answer he seeks could not only destroy him, but everything he’s ever known.
When their paths cross again on the night disaster strikes, they must choose what they believe as the fate of Whittam hangs in the balance.
