Brutal Worlds Book 1
A revolution two decades in the making.
Janessa Labaster plays her part well. Serving as Viceroy Philip’s wife, she savors castle comforts and carries out his orders. When a prisoner in the dungeon demands to see her by a name her husband forbade twenty years ago, Janessa’s façade threatens to crack.
Philip’s closest allies, now her most treacherous enemies, lurk around every corner. Janessa struggles to keep her composure where one slip could throw her into worse danger than she’s ever escaped. With friends past and present filling her mind, Janessa must choose between her safety and a greater legacy. If she chooses wrong, Philip will unleash his bloodiest retaliation and snuff out the last resurgence of what she once believed in.
