Lark Davies sleeps in a gilded palace and eats the finest foods, but he would trade it all to change that one night. Haunted by the trauma of murders he couldn’t stop, Lark’s dreams become ravaged by images of the darkness he can’t escape. Robbed of sleep and slowly losing his sanity, the talented mind-reader knows he won’t last much longer.
As he strives to keep it together, his life only spirals out of control. Khea, the new queen of Nakbe–and his only light in the night–declares sacrifice to be a necessary component of the island culture, forcing Lark to assert his disapproval. For the first time, the unifying bond he shares with her isn’t enough to keep them together. Lark leaves the capital to defend his position against the crimes and earn the strength to prevent them.
With Avis at his side, Lark’s only hope to stand against the queen and avert a future of death lies in his unexplored ability to manipulate physical elements of the world. The two men search out the spirits that control water, fire, and wind, finding help in the unlikeliest places.

I thoroughly enjoyed every page of it. I read it in pretty much 24 hours!!! I can’t wait for her next one.~Brandi, Goodreads Reviewer
A brilliant new fantasy concept, intelligent writing, and the author’s innate story-telling ability combined to produce a tale that I could not get enough of. ~Kelly, Amazon Reviewer
Wow. And this is a debut novel? I am blown away at this book. I don’t like fantasy books. I like contemporary much better, but this book was amazing. ~Alex, Book Blogger
McCoy draws from many different cultures to build her world and does a terrific job at it. Very clever indeed. Highly recommended. ~Fred, Amazon Reviewer
