Book 2 in the US DARK FEW series: Khalani survived the prison. Now she faces the lie. Khalani Kanes survived the impossible: escaping Braderhelm Prison and reaching the surface, a wasteland they were told was deadly. But freedom comes at a cost. As she and her ragtag crew cross the dangerous "Death-Zone" toward the underground city of Hermes, violent storms, buried secrets, and the cold return of Takeshi Steele threaten their survival. And something else lurks on the surface. But the real danger awaits in Hermes: a city as corrupt and brutal as the prison she fled. And this time, she's trapped with the one man she swore to hate. Escaping Braderhelm was just the beginning.
