The Order of Glory

For the past century, the Order of Glory has ruled with fear and oppression, its people living under constant surveillance and control. But when high-ranking politicians begin to fall victim to a string of assassinations, whispers spread through the streets, blaming the secretive Militia.

Seventeen-year-old orphans Alice and her twin brother Max want nothing more than to stay invisible. But their lives shatter when they are unwillingly caught up in the assassination of the second most powerful man in the Order.

Saved at the last moment by a mysterious figure known only as the Shadow-the elusive assassin behind the killings-they are thrust into a deadly conspiracy. The Shadow has his own agenda, one that could topple the regime-or destroy anyone who gets in his way.

Now Alice and Max must uncover who the Shadow truly is, and why he spared them, before they become the next victims of the dictatorship.

The first book in a gripping new trilogy, this is a story of survival, secrets, and the fight for freedom in a world ruled by fear.
