After his wife’s death and the collapse of his newspaper, David Harwood has no choice but to uproot his nine-year-old son and move back into his childhood home in Promise Falls, New York. David believes his life is in free fall, and he can’t find a way to stop his descent.

Then he comes across a family secret of epic proportions. A year after a devastating miscarriage, David’s cousin Marla has continued to struggle. But when David’s mother asks him to check on her, he’s horrified to discover that she’s been secretly raising a child who is not her own — a baby she claims was a gift from an “angel” left on her porch.

When the baby’s real mother is found murdered, David can’t help wanting to piece together what happened — even if it means proving his own cousin’s guilt. But as he uncovers each piece of evidence, David realizes that Marla’s mysterious child is just the tip of the iceberg.

Other strange things are happening. Animals are found ritually slaughtered. An ominous abandoned Ferris wheel seems to stand as a warning that something dark has infected Promise Falls. And someone has decided that the entire town must pay for the sins of its past... in blood.

Seven years ago, Terry Archer and his family, who first appeared in , experienced a horrific ordeal that nearly cost them their lives. Today, the echoes of that fateful night are still audible. Terry’s wife, Cynthia, is living separate from her husband and daughter after her own personal demons threatened to ruin her relationship with them permanently. Their daughter, Grace, is rebelling against her parents’ seemingly needless overprotection. Terry is just trying to keep his family together. And the entire town is reeling from the senseless murder of two elderly locals.

But when Grace foolishly follows her delinquent boyfriend into a strange house, the Archers must do more than stay together. They must stay alive. Because now they have all been unwillingly drawn into the shadowy depths of their seemingly idyllic hometown.

For there, they will be reconnected with the man who saved their lives seven years ago, but who still remains a ruthless, unrepentant criminal. They will encounter killers for hire working all sides. And they will learn that there are some things people value much more than money, and will do anything to get it.

Caught in a labyrinth between family loyalty and ultimate betrayal, Terry must find a way to extricate his family from a lethal situation he still doesn’t fully comprehend. All he knows is that to live, he may have to do the unthinkable...

Meanwhile, Detective Barry Duckworth is still trying to solve two murders — one of which is three years old — he believes are connected, since each featured a similar distinctive wound.

And when yet another murder happens, Cal and Barry are both driven to pursue their investigations, no matter where they lead.

Two other young boys have died recently, although in very different circumstances. As Ren digs deeper, she discovers that all is not as it seems in the Veir household and that Tate a small town with a big secret.

Can Ren uncover the truth before more children are harmed?

Everything has been leading to this.

It's the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, May 23rd, and the small town of Promise Falls, New York, has found itself in the midst of a full-blown catastrophe. Hundreds of people are going to the hospital with similar flu-like symptoms – and dozens have died. Investigators quickly zero in on the water supply. But the question for many, including private investigator Cal Weaver, remains: Who would benefit from a mass poisoning of this town?

Meanwhile, Detective Barry Duckworth is faced with another problem. A college student has been murdered, and he's seen the killer's handiwork before – in the unsolved homicides of two other women in town. Suddenly, all the strange things that have happened in the last month start to add up. Bloody mannequins found in car "23" of an abandoned Ferris wheel, a fiery, out-of-control bus with "23" on the back, that same number on the hoodie of a man accused of assault. The motive for harming the people of Promise Falls points to the number 23 – and working out why will bring Duckworth closer to death than he's ever been before.

When a young girl from Promise Falls is killed by a drunk driver, the community wants answers.

It doesn’t matter that the accused is a kid himself: all they see is that he took a life and got an easy sentence. As pack mentality kicks in and social media outrage builds, vicious threats are made against the boy and his family.

When Cal Weaver is called in to investigate, he finds himself caught up in a cold-blooded revenge plot. Someone in the town is threatening to put right some wrongs...

And in Cal’s experience, it’s only ever a matter of time before threats turn into action.

Le mage Denser a lancé AubeMort, le sortilège apocalyptique, les Seigneurs Sorcyers ont été bannis et les habitants de Balaia peuvent maintenant se concentrer sur la menace des Ouestiens pour les vaincre.
Mais il s'est passé quelque chose de terrible. Le sortilège a créé une déchirure entre les dimensions, une tâche de néant dans le ciel bleu qui jette une ombre en plein zénith. Et de jour en jour, cette ombre grandit. Tandis que les Ouestiens prennent d'assaut Balaia, les Ravens doivent répondre à un appel étrange du fabuleux dragon Sha-Kaan. La couvée Kaan affronte dans un combat perdu d'avance les autres couvées de la dimension des dragons, pour les empêcher de se déverser dans la déchirure dimensionnelle et de ravager Balaia.
Et d'une façon ou d'une autre, les Ravens doivent les aider...

Ils n'ont pas tout à fait tort... car une magie ancienne et terrifiante est de retour, incarnée dans un être qui pourrait être l'Unique, celui qui réunira les arts des quatre Collèges en un seul. Pour sauver Balaia et ses habitants, il faudrait assassiner ce fauteur de troubles... C'est une mission pour les Ravens. Le problème, c'est que cet être est une petite fille de cinq ans, Lyanna, et que ses parents sont Denser et Erienne, les mages des Ravens ! Tandis que les Collèges, en guerre ouverte, essaient de s'emparer de l'enfant pour récupérer son pouvoir, Erienne parvient à se sauver avec elle.
Elle part en quête de ceux qui pourront aider sa fille à sortir de l'OmbreMage, période infantile où les mages ne canalisent pas encore leurs pouvoirs. La petite fille a peur, et ses peurs détruisent tout sur leur passage. Les Ravens vont tout faire pour la retrouver. Mais pourront-ils se permettre de la laisser en vie ?

Les Ravens ont combattu ensemble durant des années... Six hommes et un elfe vendant leur épée au plus offrant dans les guerres qui ont déchiré Balaia. Tout en restant loyaux envers leur code d'honneur et envers eux-mêmes. Mais en acceptant d'escorter un mage du Collège de magie Xetesk dans une sinistre mission, ils se jettent dans un écheveau d'influences politiques et d'anciens secrets qui va changer leur vie pour toujours. Car ils doivent trouver AubeMort : un sort qui, s'il est lancé, provoquera la fin du monde. Isolés, trahis, dans un monde au bord de la catastrophe, les Ravens n'ont d'autre choix que de faire confiance à un homme qui respire le mensonge et a un démon pour familier...
