On the exterior, twins Acelyn and Brooklyn Smith seem like normal teenage girls, but in actuality, they are far from. Normalcy is crushed in a mere few seconds as they narrowly manage to escape their demise; having a set destination, the twins run away to their old family vacation house. 

     They never anticipated the knock on the door, nor what they were getting into.

     Their life only gets curiouser and curiouser as they begin to learn of a prophecy— a prophecy that entails twins cast out of their homeland and down to earth as infants to be safe while their home was at war. 

     As their eighteenth birthday nears, Brooklyn and Acelyn start to notice they share shocking parallels with the myth foretold, but could that just be coincidence? In a matter of weeks, their lives take an even more dramatic twist for the dark. 

     The prophecy rings true; with indecision, love, and lies, they set out upon a perilous journey to save their lives, their people, and their world. But can they really be sure of their judgement? When lines are crossed, truths are blurred, and morality has different meaning, it begins to complicate things.

     After all, you can never become truly holy unless you have the opportunity to be definitively wicked.
