The SunDowners In | The Dagger and the Rose

Action Adventure Series • Book 4

Every relic is a doorway.
Every shadow hides a name.
And every Sunbound heart must learn
the price of carrying legends too long.

From the desert's whispers to the catacombs' bells, the story does not end, it deepens. The Tiger led them to the Dagger, and the Rose waits with thorns still wet with blood."

When something evil and ancient
plunders the tomb of Sainte-Rosamonde,
a convent where shadows once moved like assassins, the Sunbound are pulled into a legend older than they can fathom.
The artifact is no mere treasure-
it is the key to binding or unleashing a power buried in blood and silence.

For Callahan, it is more than a mission.
It is a vow.

Once, in a hidden cloister of France, a woman named Rosamonde Ducos; nun, resistance fighter, assassin, saint, called him The Dagger.

He called her The Rose.

Before her death, she bound him to a promise: to guard the relic with his life.

Now her ghost cries out to him, and he knows what it means-her trust has been betrayed, and her sorrow is not at rest.

🌹

But as the Sunbound race time itself
across catacombs and castles, they discover something more chilling:

The relic is not just tied to Rosamonde.

It is knotted into the very curse that took Tatyana, the woman Callahan lost to his own stubborn silence. And if they cannot recover it, both women's ghosts- and Callahan himself- may be consumed.

Together, Kaida, Noey, Atlas, and Valli must face the labyrinth of Callahan's past, where assassins wore habits, where lovers became legends, and where shadows still hunger for flesh.

Because the relic is not only a prize.
It is a mirror. And when the Sunbound look into it, they will see the truth: This time, the fight is not to save a relic.

It is to save him.

It was beautiful. It was damning.
It was his.
