Falling, that's all she can feel.

Falling, that's all she can see.

Falling, that's all she can hear.

When Louise finds herself lying in a clearing, with pain shooting through her bruised body, she knows something is wrong. The first answer to her suspicions moans its way into the clearing, eager to grip its cold, dead hands into human flesh. However, Jared, a stunning young boy, saves Louise from the clutches of the vile creature, bringing her back to the city of DarkWater. Louise soon finds life easy, the daily survival away from the Ravens outside, only dealing with the one thing that seems out of place. At the moment when a member of the 'town' turns 17, they get up and walk into the woods, never to be seen again. As a human, at least. Louise struggles with this new problem, seeing as she is two weeks from turning 17 herself, even though she just arrived. As time ticks by, Louise fights for a solution to the problem, leading to a possibility she never would have thought to be able to exist, all the while an uneasy war is being threatened from the neighbors of SkyWatch.

Will Louise end this dreadful conflict?

Will the answers arise to the questions so painfully asked?

Will Louise  regret ever wanting them answered in the first place?


The first instalment of the Rise of the Fall Chronicles.
