Our Deadly Designs (A This Dark Descent Novel)


Kalyn Josephson

FROM THE BOOK JACKET:

The Illinir may be over, but the race for Enderlain's future has just begun. The hunt for the old king's lost heir is on, and the first to find them will win the throne.

Mikira has allied herself with the rebels in pursuit of the heir, but the deeper her search takes her, the closer she gets to the royal family's wicked past.

Ari is struggling to control her own growing power as she grapples with a dark secret that may be her undoing--and the truth behind Damien's greatest foe.

Damien, the new head of House Adair, joins the race to find the royal successor and secure the crown. But as his influence at court grows, so do his paranoia and hunger for power.

Reid is trying his best to stay true to the friend who's always had his loyalty--and the flame who has his heart--while trapped in a web of chaos and lies.

All the while, a darker force is festering in Enderlain's underbelly. Mikira, Ari, Damien, and Reid will need to find a way back to one another--and themselves--before the kingdom is torn apart. Hearts will be broken and new bonds will be forged in this explosive finale to This Dark Descent, where spellbinding fantasy meets Jewish mythology in a cut-throat race for the throne--and humanity's survival.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Kalyn Josephson is a New York Times-bestselling author who works as a technical writer in the tech industry, which leaves room for too many bad puns about technically being a writer. She grew up in San Luis Obispo, California, and graduated from Santa Clara University with degrees in biology and creative writing. Currently, she lives in the Bay Area with two black cats (who are more like a tiny dragon and an even tinier owl). She is the author of the Storm Crow duology as well as the middle grade series Ravenfall.
