A talk, a choice, and she finds herself surrounded again by the very things she vowed to let go.

Night marches on the Everburning City. The life-killing mist enshrouding the world, the Gloam, clings to the walls. Golems, towering monsters of stone, shake the earth as they march. And the dead rise again, puppeteered by some distant, titanic power. For Corporal Valen Redgrave, on the watch at the outermost walls of the City, the night marks the end of the military life he has known. The idyllic simpering of the watch has ended, and Valen finds himself the pillar upon which his companions' courage rests. For Gwendolyn Aranhall, stewarding a work rehabilitation camp for youth guilty of petty crimes, the night heralds the dismantling of everything she has known. As the Gloam claims the world around her, and she becomes the last thing standing between children and monsters, she finds in herself a heart unbroken by her fear. And that resilience will see darker responsibilities laid upon her. For Crafter Olivia Polden, the fire she commands and the red coat she wears represents the single greatest power in the City. Weirder of a power that could doom the City as surely as the foes marching upon it, she will stand first among those sent to halt the invasion. And only then, begin to learn how to live with despair. There is no night in the Everburning City. There can never be. (Cover courtesy of Mahana258)

And as the perpetrator hides within the millions of people who inhabit the City, the task of finding this murder falls to Inspector Samuel B Fraser. Aided by a grateful Bureau of Oversight, his investigation will reach deep into the mysteries that brought a young man to the madness of desperation, and beyond into secrets that some powers would rather stay buried.

Excerpt: Before leaving, she leaned into my face whispering her answer in my ears, all the while pointing that gun at me, as if to mock my mortality because it was obvious enough that she could shatter my psyche with a mere thought. I had accepted my fate the moment she entered the house, yet it was her words which caused my face to turn ashen before it all went dark, " I have worn many faces in my lifetime, I am the face of someone's dreams while for others I am nightmare given flesh but the most famous face I've ever worn is the one that sailed a thousand ships." Reviews: @Claire-Merle: Nice contrasting attitude. I am intrigued @Strangeoutcast: This is beautiful. I am intrigued. The poetic stanza describing the mesmerizing tales of the kingdom are profound. @AlifiyaAkhtar: The tales have been described with so much concern and beautifully written. It all started with those four words with which most tales began.... Once upon a time in a far, far land lived a princess. But there's a tiny little change,this story is not about her nor is it about the prince who was one day to rule the land with an iron fist. This is not a tale as old as time. In fact this tale is about what yesterday was like, this tale is about today and about all the days to come and it will make you question your reality, and only those who can truly see will know the truth. But does it truly require an entire new world to make you question your existence or is one person enough to do so.... What if that one person is someone whom you thought you knew? What if this is a tale of a girl who carved out her own empire in the 21st century? What if this tale is about a boy fiercely loyal to her? What if this is the story of his betrayal? Or what if this story is something totally different? What if it does not revolve around the boy and the girl? What if you have to forge together the gaps in the story and discover the truth? What if this tale was never told?
