They say it rained the day Chaos fell from grace. Not in a mist upon a delicate wind, but in a torrential rush... Damian Venturi brought a murderer to justice, but he suspects there was a cost he's not prepared to pay. As he struggles to act the competent officer again, he's plagued by inescapable dark thoughts that make him wonder if he's truly in control of himself. Roz Lacertosa should feel victorious. Her father's killer is dead, and the rebels have forced the Palazzo's defects into the spotlight. Yet the war with Brechaat rages on, and the city's disciples are hell-bent on keeping the status quo. When a powerful new general arrives to restore order, dozens are arrested and shipped north - including Roz and Damian's friends. Determined to free them, Roz and Damian set their sights on Brechaat. But their journey is dogged by strange magic, and Damian shifts further from the boy he used to be. What lies in the north will alter both their fates...and Ombrazia's. Because something grim and unholy has awakened. The complications of love, magic, faith, and war will keep readers eagerly turning the pages as they head toward the gripping conclusion of M. K. Lobb's Seven Faceless Saints duology.
