"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

Dust swirled in the dim light of the forgotten chapel, the weight of the past pressing against the walls like an unspoken curse. The mural of the ancient battle loomed over them, its faded figures locked in eternal conflict—the first kings against the abyssal horrors.

Damien stared at the obsidian door depicted in the center of the battlefield. It was the same as the one in the Dead Isles, the same as the seals they had seen before. But this was different. Older. If this was the first seal, then it had been hidden for a reason.

Erynn brushed the dust from the base of the mural, her silver eyes scanning the faded carvings. "If this is a map, it's not one I recognize."

Carys crossed her arms. "So where do we even start?"

Dante exhaled, rubbing a hand over his face. "Oh, I don't know. Maybe the entire damn kingdom?"

Amara smirked. "At least it'll be a challenge."
