[SAMPLE] In a world ravaged by holy war, Ari clings to one truth: mouths lie, but blood does not. Haunted by the past and desperate for answers, he turns to Auovin-a demon whose secrets could unravel everything he believes. What follows is a journey of uneasy revelations and slow-burning desire, where love tangles with betrayal, and redemption is never free of damnation. Guided-and tormented-by Auovin, Ari must confront not only the hidden truths of the war but the shifting foundations of his own morality. Daevas: Volume One begins an emotionally charged saga spanning three volumes. It is a story of truth's cost, the pull of self-discovery, and the peril of being seen in a broken world. For readers of Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire, Daevas is a queer dark fantasy novel where love, monstrosity, and identity intertwine in devastating ways.

Alex Sawyer never thought much of it when he was approached to 'keep an eye out' for Isaac Anderson. Well, sure he had his reservations about that boy -the loud, obnoxious kid from the football team- but he never expected himself to be dragged onto a journey uncovering dark secrets and heinous crimes that were never meant to see the light of day. In picture perfect Bethlehem, image was all that mattered. And people were willing to do just about anything to keep their smiling facades spotless.
