The people she died to save want her dead.

In post-apocalyptic Western Australia, Mara's trading post is the last safe haven. Her rules are simple: pay your debts, don't start trouble, protect your own. When Captain Harvey's army arrives demanding her land and people, she gives him a choice between leaving peacefully or leaving in pieces.
His answer is torture, captivity, and an ultimatum: surrender everything or watch it burn.
Instead, Mara chooses a third option—sacrificing herself to the darkness itself.
What emerges has bronze wings, storm-touched power, and a hunger for justice that terrifies even her closest friends.

Some choices can't be undone. Some loves are worth becoming a monster.
