It has been almost twenty years since the royal family of the Altus Empire was overthrown. Liora never knew a time when the Corvus family was in power. All she knows is scrubbing down the rooms of the pleasure house where she and her twin brother live as slaves.
But when Liora discovers an abandoned trinket in one of the rooms, her investigation of it spirals into a horrifying nightmare as an epidemic of madness suddenly besets the city.

Forced to ally with old enemies and unexpected strangers, Liora must fight to survive and learn the truth about what happened nearly two decades ago.

Broken Shells, the first novel in the six-book Ashling Saga, is available now.

In the months following the collapse of Calimbor, Princess Liora Corvus continues to seek out her family and evade capture. However, with leads dried up and the Praetorian Guard still seeking the end of the Corvus line, they make the risky decision to hide in plain sight.

At Garrison Military Academy, the young royals grow their strength and avoid their executioners. When things start to fall into a pleasant routine, Liora sees the chance for a dangerously normal life.

But nothing good can last.

Mysterious and monstrous murders begin to crop up in the surrounding village. Liora doesn’t know if they’re related to her, or if her family has simply walked from one horrible tragedy to another, but she does know one thing; she cannot sit idly by. She must discover who is at the heart of these grisly deaths and put a stop to it.

Forgotten Vault, the second novel in the Ashling Saga, is available now!

With her identity revealed, Liora is no longer able to hide. Her small band of allies has blossomed into a full rebellion. Both the princess and her fellow Garrison cadets live in exile, forced to stay on the move as they seek to fight back against the Praetorian Council.

But step one of the plan was always going to be reuniting the rest of her family. Two of her brothers are with her, two more are missing, and the fate of their parents remains unknown.

A single lead pulls Liora into a world of dangerous bargains and uneasy alliances, where every step forward comes at a cost and leads her to places she never knew existed, to face enemies that defy explanation.

And what she uncovers sets her on a path far greater than reclaiming an empire.
