CHOSEN TO KEEP THE DARKNESS AT BAY In the theocratic state of Argacia, where ears listen behind closed doors and the watchful eye of the Sect sees all, Braya Farroe has two options: sacrifice herself for the betterment of her people or face banishment. Not much of a choice, she knows. And despite the Sect Elders' wishes, Braya wants more than a life of service and sacrifice. She wants to be free. But when two members of the dreaded Mollakai arrive early to perform the sacrificial ceremony, she finds herself inextricably drawn to them - the deadly and enigmatic Mollakai she should fear and revile. But fate is a twisted mistress and the men who should be her damnation may instead offer her salvation. NO ONE CAN OUTRUN THEIR DESTINY They'll help Braya escape if she pretends to be an Apexer - the ruthless governing class who value strength above all else. But of course, there's a catch. As part of the ruse, she needs to enter the Rite of Radnick, a once-in-a-generation rite of passage to choose the future ruler of Argacia. Even if it means competing against the man who rescued her from the Sect. And when she finds herself thrust into a sacred land surrounded by competitors more vicious than the mythical creatures trying to kill her, Braya must discover who is worthy of her trust and her heart. Because once you enter the Rite of Radnick, there are only two choices:RISE OR DIE
