The Light and the Ruin

Moriah Shaker is trapped inside a supernatural prison with a thousand alternate versions of herself. Water maidens. Oracles. Humans. All collared, powerless, and carrying a fragment of the Ember of Everlight. To claim the Ember in full, the warden launches a brutal competition where only one Moriah can survive.

The rules are simple. Hunt each other. Steal the Embers. Surrender the light. The reward? Freedom and a chance to see Jasher, the man each Moriah loved and lost. But Moriah 1000 refuses to play.

Complicating matters? The prison’s terrifying enforcer keeps helping her. He is ruthless, beautiful, and utterly lethal, and he can shatter minds with a whisper. Yet with every encounter, she questions everything she knows about him…and herself.

As alliances fracture and bodies fall, Moriah must save the women who are literally pieces of her. Because the greatest threat might not be the foe demanding her light or the beautiful monster tempting her toward ruin. It might be discovering she’s been her own worst enemy all along.
