Family comes first, always. Especially when you've never had one before.
The only life Zahra has known has been the inside of Cairos most ruthless orphanage. Abandoned there by parents she never knew, she learnt quickly that those in charge are not to be trusted. Being able to read minds has its advantages, after all. So, on her thirteenth birthday, Zahra didnt run away. She escaped.
Now she's formed a family from a misfit group of kids that society has forgotten and uses her powers to their advantage, conning and stealing from the rich and powerful.
But things on the streets of Cairo are hard, and children have started disappearing. When those she swore to protect go missing, she takes matters into her own hands.
The authorities arent interested in a bunch of missing street kids, so Zahra takes on the hunt for the kidnappers herself.
What she uncovers is a web of darkness, secrets, and a sinister world hidden from view. One of witches, vampires, fae, shifters and angels, governed by a secretive organisation known only as The Ministry.
Shes unwittingly broken the single most important covenant of The Ministry. You must never reveal your identity or powers. Shes done both - but hell, how can you be guilty of breaking a law you didnt even know existed?
The head of The Ministrys security, Matteo, a sanctimonious angel, gives her two options. Join The Ministry and work for them, or be banished to the swamp - a supernatural prison no ones ever escaped from.
Under the watchful eyes of the egotistical and frustratingly gorgeous angel warrior, shes determined to find the missing kids, earn her freedom from the clutches of The Ministry, and become something she has never been.
