Part of Lux, book 4
First published 2019
Daemon faces his worst nightmare. The Mount Weather raid succeeded, but Katy vanished in the chaos. Someone took her. Now he will tear apart anyone blocking his path to find her. He will burn the world down if necessary. He will reveal his alien Luxen identity to humanity without hesitation. Katy fights to stay alive among her captors. Daedalus holds her prisoner, and survival means learning to adapt quickly. The organization presents arguments that sound reasonable at first. Their goals terrify her, but their claims about the truth disturb her even more. She questions everything she believed. Are the Daedalus scientists the real villains? Is humanity the threat? Or do the Luxen pose the greatest danger? Daemon and Katy have always been stronger as partners. But their most deadly enemy has been hiding in plain sight. When all the deceptions unravel and false beliefs collapse, they must choose which side deserves their loyalty. The question remains whether they will stand together when the moment comes.
