They entered the tomb to fight for their lives. The terrors within force them to battle for their souls.
The people of the sunless lands of Avedolon crave power from their shrouded past. When the lost tomb of the Ashen Emperor is rediscovered all the countries send forth their best and brightest to claim the secrets and riches hidden inside. Among them are three liars, each willing to spill blood and break minds to get what they want.
The Summoner, a resurrected princess disguised as a noblewoman. Carrying forbidden magic and heavy vengeance, none who stand in her way stay standing for long.
The Weed, a killer masquerading as a noble knight. Her smile is as sharp as her blades, her wit as quick as her feet. She's always killed in the name of her criminal masters-until now.
The Warder, a powerful magic user coveted by all and loved only by one. It's his cunning mind that sparks the plan to free him and the Weed from their masters, and his sanity that's in danger of being swallowed by the tomb.
The trials and horrors of the tomb test them, but it's the growing violence amongst the factions that threaten each of their plans. With no choice but to rely on each other, the trio forge an alliance born of blood and secrets to survive. For two, it's about freedom and survival. For another, it's about deadly necessity.
With enemies above, monsters below, and creeping madness lurking around every corner, their greatest enemy is not the ancient powers who know no moral code-it's their fragile alliance. Their fear of betrayal may be the deadliest trial of all.
