In the Shadows of Ril
Sheriff Brin Thorne thought the bloodshed of war was behind him. But when his patron Lord Bosil and his entire household are brutally murdered, the echoes of the past erupt in the present. As tensions rise between once-warring nations, Brin must navigate a web of political intrigue, forbidden magic, and haunting memories. Each step closer to the truth reveals a darker force at play, one capable of unraveling not just the fragile peace, but Brin’s very mind.
With his deputy, Lila, by his side, Brin embarks on a perilous investigation that will test the limits of his resolve and uncover secrets meant to remain buried. Who—or what—is orchestrating this chaos? And can justice prevail before the flames of war ignite once more?
In a world where memories fuel magic and alliances are as fleeting as dreams, the greatest danger may lie within.
