Dusk

The walled city of Adia is the last vestige of human civilization on the planet. Its government is racist and classist, and its citizens are segregated. Adia's Chancellor, the infamous Adrian Rook, controls the city and all of its inhabitants, and all attempts to bring down his regime have been quelled, except for one. A masked man known only as Idris leads a rebellion against him, one that's quickly been gaining traction in Adia's Middle and Outer Rings.

Two years have passed since The Blot swept through the Outer Ring, and Deva Amador is one of its many victims. It was a disease that caused death in some and amnesia in others, and Deva can't remember anything of the life she used to live. She lives with her older brother, Blake, who's more than a little overprotective- especially when she hallucinates about a life she's never lived.

Deva spends most of her time skirting around her brother's rules and brawling it out in one of the Outer Ring's many gambling arenas until she comes face to face with Idris himself. He's everything she's ever dreamed of and more, and when he offers for her to be part of his rebellion, she's overjoyed... but Deva could never agree to such a thing without Blake's permission.

And then Blake goes missing.

Left with no choice but to join the rebellion, Idris makes Deva a promise: he will find her brother on the condition that she helps him, by any means necessary, to bring equality to Adia. But as Deva enters further and further into his world, she has to wonder whether it is really equality Idris is obsessed with, or whether it is something- or someone- else entirely.
