First published 2017
Bastien Cabarro watched his entire family die in a brutal massacre. His wife then accused him of the murders. The League made him Ravin, marking him as prey for assassin trainees. Most Ravin die within six weeks. Bastien has survived ten years. Now he has one shot at justice. He must work with Major Ember Wyldestarrin, his former wingman and sister to the woman who betrayed him. Ember joined the outlaw Tavali after Kirovar fell to a tyrant who killed her parents and forced her sisters into exile. She wants revenge on that tyrant more than anything. Ember carries a secret that would make Bastien kill her. She took a loyalty oath to protect her homeworld and comrades. Bastien was more than just her wingman. Now she must choose between family loyalty and saving the man she cares about. The stakes reach beyond personal vengeance. Bastien holds the key to the fate of Kirovar and the war between The Sentella and The League. If he dies on this mission, three nations fall. Time runs short for everyone.
