It’s been five weeks, two days, and eight hours since the demons forced Quinn to throw herself into the raging river, since Aaron sacrificed himself to save her, since his body disappeared without a trace. Everyone wants her to move on, but Quinn can’t, not after his spirit—or something—appears to her at his memorial, convincing her he’s still alive. When a mysterious box materializes on the very spot Aaron disappeared, Quinn finds she’s at the center of an ancient prophesy of betrayal, revenge, and sacrifice that takes her to the depths of the underworld to face Lilith—Adam’s first wife. If Quinn can stop Lilith from unleashing the demon horde Eve trapped inside the box during the Battle of Eden millennia ago, she will save the human realm and free Aaron from an eternity in torment. All it will cost is her blood.

Pages : 59
Book Description
"In the depths of an ancient and mysterious castle, nestled at the highest point of the dark Cliff, lies a secret hidden for generations. Whispers of the night tell tales of redemption and sacrifice, while a dense fog envelops the dark town of Ostroford, the silent guardian of this enigmatic abode. In the tranquil village, where shadows seem to come to life, the arrival of Elsa, a young woman of light and mystery, will unleash a series of events that will change the destiny of all those who dare to venture into the mysteries of the dark Cliff. William, the owner of the ancestral mansion, lives tormented by secrets that have haunted him since his youth. His wife, Alice, has tried to maintain peace at home, but the shadow of the unknown threatens to shatter their harmony. Meanwhile, Liam, the faithful caretaker, knows more about the dark corners of the mansion than he's willing to reveal. Destiny intertwines strongly when Alexander, the son of William and Alice, finds love in Elsa, whose past is as enigmatic as the castle she now resides in. Emma, the mysterious housekeeper, keeps silent about dark secrets that could change everything, while Wilma, a distant relative, arrives for a visit and seems to have her own interest in the legacy of the dark Cliff. A haunted mirror, living nightmares, and a secret passage to the unknown challenge the sanity of those who dare to confront the enigmas of the castle. Liberation or condemnation, sacrifice and ritual, are key pieces that form a macabre puzzle, whose consequences will affect not only those who reside in the castle but also all of Ostroford. The final battle approaches, and as the thick fog penetrates the heart of the village, redemption seems as distant as it is elusive. But even in the deepest darkness, there is always a light that guides towards a new beginning. Will they unravel the secrets of the dark Cliff and find the hidden legacy that awaits in its depths? Or will the past, like lost memories,
