Ominous, striking, and set in a plausibly real world, this dark tale blurs the lines between black, white, and all the shades of grey in between.
Something sinister is afoot in dreary Dysael. First, several women go mysteriously missing. Then, one by one, their husbands begin turning up dead – killed in increasingly brutal ways.
Sister Kempson of the Holy Sisters of Conviction and her bodyguard Garth arrive in the city to investigate the situation. However, Constable Thackery deems them nothing but an interference in his own investigation as he aims to restore law and order at any cost.
Amidst all the quarrelling, will they be able to put a stop to the growing darkness in Dysael as more and more people are killed? Sister Kempson will need to uncover the truth fast before hysteria breaks out as the townspeople grow more frightened and paranoid … that is, as long as she doesn’t lose sight of which side represents the good and which the evil …

The author Cameron Scott Kirk writes beautifully and enhances the story itself through the story telling. I really enjoyed how the reader gets to see the story unfold through various perspectives. The story delves into themes of political intrigue, social unrest, and the blurring lines between good and evil. The novel is noted for its grimdark elements, blending violent magic with a critique of toxic femininity, set against the backdrop of a society caught between tradition and modernity. Thrilling and unnerving, you never knew what was going to unfold next.
What a great story. A horror fantasy that is very immersive. The author did a great job building the world and the characters . The story is very dark and complex. The world is beautiful but is plagues by a changing society and challenging of social norms. This book has a pretty violent death toll and it weighs heavy on the main characters. The divide between the law and the church makes for an interesting tale. The world is ominous and dark but somehow still quite beautiful. I highly recommend this title to anyone.
