About this ebook

The gifted can't hide their talents forever. But monsters await when they step into the light . . .

Micah's Chimaera powers are growing, just as dark visions threaten to overwhelm him. Drystan is forced to take him to Dr Pozzi, but can they really trust the doctor? Especially when he gets Micah hooked on a mysterious medicine, and a close friend is revealed to be his spy?

Meanwhile, violent unrest is sweeping the country, as anti-royalist factions fight to be heard. Then three chimaera are attacked-and the struggle becomes personal. An ancient sect has re-emerged to spread terror once more, and the fate of all chimaera hangs in the balance.

When a royal secret brings Micah into the heart of the conflict, he and his friends will need to risk everything to finally bring peace to Elada.
