Ash Between Us

Two sisters. One world in ruins. A bond broken by betrayal.

In the dying remnants of Earth, Kael and Nira Vire have only ever had one rule: stay together or die alone.

Disguised as boys to survive in the brutal rebel faction known as the Irons, the sisters have lived by blade, instinct, and silence. But during a critical mission, Nira hesitates-just once-and it costs their entire unit their lives.

Devastated and furious, Kael walks away, leaving her sister behind in the ash.

Alone and heartbroken, Nira is found by the enemy-the tyrannical Solar Regime. But instead of executing her, they mold her into something new: a weapon, a symbol, a soldier with a cause. Trained to fight and taught to forget, Nira prepares for the Solar Trials, the Regime's blood-soaked spectacle of control.

Meanwhile, Kael claws her way back from the wreckage, now part of a rebel movement planning to bring the Regime down from the inside. Rumors swirl of a deadly girl on the enemy's side-one with Nira's eyes.

As the sisters head toward the same battlefield, one fighting to destroy the system, the other to uphold it, they'll both face a terrible truth:

Sometimes, the person you love most is the one standing in your way.
