In the second installment of the dystopian Black City trilogy, Ash Fisher’s blissful life is upended when a menacing figure delivers a life-altering ultimatum.

“Exciting and compelling plot . . . will have readers quickly turning pages. This reviewer will no doubt be back to see where the tale goes next.”—VOYA

Ash believes his troubles are far behind him. He and Natalie are engaged and life seems good. But his happiness is short-lived when he receives a threatening visit from Purian Rose, who gives Ash an ultimatum: vote in favor of Rose’s Law—a law that will send Darklings and other dissenters to a deadly concentration camp—or Natalie will be killed.

At first the decision is clear, but can Ash really risk the lives of millions of Darklings to save the one he loves?

“Exciting and compelling plot . . . will have readers quickly turning pages. This reviewer will no doubt be back to see where the tale goes next.”—VOYA

“Ash and Natalie are strong, clever, and determined to prevail. The ongoing struggle between good and bad is delineated with heart-thumping action and strong plotting. A cliff-hanger ending will have fans eager for the next installment.”—Booklist

“The mix of other races, politics, war, and biological weapons keeps Ash and Natalie on the run. Those they think they know may turn on them and grave misunderstandings threaten to keep them apart.”—Library Media Connection
