Reeling from the explosion that brought down an empire, Lynch and I make plans to disappear. It’s clear that the scheming Timekeepers are far more dangerous than the empire ever was.
But they aren’t the only threat the city holds.
Rumors swirl about bloodthirsty creatures roaming the tunnels of the undercity, and the sun-seared streets aren’t much safer. We decide take our chances underground.
But when a violent attack forces us back to the surface, we have to face an ugly truth. In order to survive, we will have to fight. And we will have to team up with the very people we’ve been running from.
The war isn’t over yet. And the ones who claim to want to save us?
They might be the real monsters…
