Birds fly over the streets of Saxet. A sense of despair looms in the air as the Resistance prepares for the annual tests. Seven deadly tests. Designed to kill and leave behind the Survivors, the ones who must be eliminated. With blood on their hands and a grave history with Saxet, Resistance leader Veronica Blanchard, will stop at nothing to find every last one. 16-year-old Mavis Sterling, naïve and unsure of her place in society, is selected to take part in the tests. With her life on the line, Mavis discovers she will do anything to survive. After the tests, Mavis flees to the abandoned city that surrounds Saxet. Battling between the loss of her family and the uncontrollable pull to the dark and mysterious R, Mavis' life will never be the same. As she navigates her new life and what dangers are around every corner, she discovers her hands were not made for playing piano, they were made for throwing knives.

It is 4761BC, and 17 year old Eve is an ordinary peasant, just trying to make her way in life by a few coin, which she gains out of stealing from rich townspeople. Suddenly, when she is caught and taken in with interest by King Titon of the Land of Eve for having the prophecy of the Chosen One, and for her unusually keen fighting skills, she must become the Lady in the Iron Mask, a soldier of Titon. Trained by the King's son and general, Kieran, Eve must learn to fight like a true killer, and practice courtly etiquette. However, maybe the fight is bigger than she could have ever imagined...and maybe, it just might destroy everything she loves.
