"If somehow you could rewrite your life's greatest sins."

Damien Vryce, a hard-hearted killer, was hanged for tyranny. He found himself awoken one year ahead of his fall. Having recollections from his past, he swore to make amends and save himself from the gallows. In the path of redemption lay treachery, conspiracies under the surface, and an unlikely, but hot love with the unknown woman, Amara Draven.

As Damien sows the seeds of distrust by laying ruin to his past empire of fear, he recognizes that redemption considers the acknowledgement of the sins that have been committed along with the crossing of the line from sin to repentance. An entire kingdom lies in the threshold of war, enemies imbued with greed lurk in the shadows, and the second chance for Damien may well be the last.

Redemption In The Shadows

The revelation of a traitor in Winter's Crown weighed heavily on Damien as he prepared to leave Blackmere. The battle at the River Talwyn and the destruction of the coalition's hidden depot had bought the kingdom precious time, but the enemy was adapting. Calder's plans were becoming more dangerous, and his influence within the capital threatened to unravel everything Damien had fought for.

Damien stood in the courtyard of Blackmere, his steel-gray eyes scanning the gathered soldiers as they prepared for their next missions. Amara approached him, her sharp blue eyes gleaming with purpose.

"Are you sure about this?" she asked, her tone more serious than usual. "If Calder has someone in the capital, they're not going to make themselves easy to find."

"We don't have a choice," Damien replied. "If we don't root out this traitor, the kingdom will never be safe. I need you and Carys to hold the eastern front while I handle this."
