The reckless ancients, seeking the key to eternal life, released Her and unleashed the apocalypse caused by Her insatiable hunger for death. To fix their mistake, She was sealed and imprisoned, but her influence remained, leaving the world dreary, grey, and devoid of hope. Death is feared so much, that to even mention it is a crime. Do so, and you are considered to have allied yourself with the darkness that ruined the world. Helena is one such person, locked in a cell for predicting the deaths of others. Many people think her insane and others believe her to be closely connected with the Raven. Kaden, the newest guard in the prison stationed outside her cell soon learns she is not what she appears to be. She can heal wounds and is innocent to the dangers of the world beyond the stone walls. Meanwhile, Cristine, a talented assassin, does what she must to survive while having to answer to a zealous man who wants to unravel ancient secrets. After pushing him to his last nerve, she is forced to chase these secrets and ends up getting more than she bargained for. Soon they will be swept into a rebellion and legends made real. Assassins, corruption, and the mysterious Raven...

Also, the art for the cover comes from the video game Trine 2. I do not own the art and all credit for it goes to the creators.
