ABOUT THE BOOK

Raizel has spent his life as the Queen’s most feared weapon.

Known across the realm as the Hell Hound, he is a monster of black fur, claws, and fire—a creature sent wherever Queen Dominax needs rebellion reduced to ash. He obeys because he knows what happens when he doesn’t. The Queen learned long ago that hurting him was never enough.

She only had to hurt the people he loved.

Then Raze is ordered to hunt three young rebels.

Instead, he saves them.

Now hunted by the same forces he once served, Raze finds himself traveling beside the people he was meant to destroy: twins bound by lightning, and Elira, a young woman whose voice can bend the world itself—and whose terrifying power reflects everything Raze has spent his life hating in himself.

As rebellion spreads and the Queen’s grip tightens, the monster she created begins doing something far more dangerous than disobeying.

He begins to care.

About the people beside him. About the world beyond his leash. About the possibility that he might be more than the blood on his hands.

But freedom does not erase what Raze has done.

And some truths have been waiting a very long time to burn their way into the light.

A dark fantasy about found family, guilt, rebellion, and what happens when a weapon decides it wants to become a person.
