Lucifer "Luci" Shelby is a broken boy, haunted by the horrors of war and struggling to find his place in a world that doesn't seem to understand him. At just eighteen, he's already fought in the trenches of World War I alongside his older brothers, but while they emerged hardened and unyielding, Luci was left shattered. With PTSD raging inside him, he's become a volatile, unpredictable force, his mind a battlefield that never ceases.
As a member of the notorious Peaky Blinders gang, the Shelby brothers rule Birmingham, but Luci's uncontrollable rage and manic episodes make him a loose cannon within their tightly-knit empire. His thirst for conflict and pain drives him into reckless battles with anyone willing to test him. But it's the quiet moments, the ones he can't escape, that break him the most.
Caught between the brotherly bonds that once held him together and the mental chaos he can't outrun, Luci must face the darkness inside him before it consumes everything he loves. In a city where power is everything and survival means more than sanity, can Luci find redemption or will his war-both in his mind and on the streets-tear him apart?
