A thief. An officer. A guardian. Three strangers. One shared destiny…
When the Last Days came, the planet of Laterre promised hope. But five hundred years later, it’s now a place where an extravagant elite class reigns supreme; where the clouds hide the stars and the poor starve in the streets; where a rebel group, long thought dead, is resurfacing.
Whispers of a revolution have begun - a revolution that hinges on three unlikely heroes…
Chatine is a street-savvy thief who will do anything to escape the brutal Reigme, including spying on Marcellus, the grandson of the most powerful man on the planet.
Marcellus is an officer - and the son of a traitor. Groomed to command by his legendary grandfather, Marcellus begins to doubt the goverment he’s vowed to serve when he discovers a cryptic message that only one person, a girl named Alouette, can read.
Alouette is living in an underground refuge, where she guards and protects the last surviving library on the planet. But a shocking murder will bring Alouette to the surface for the first time in twelve years… and plunge Laterre into chaos.
All three have roles to play in a dangerous game of revolution - and together they will shape the future of the planet.
