Rift: A Nightshade Novel

by Andrea Cremer Narrated by Sile Bermingham

Overview

She can battle darkness, but she can't fight love.
*
Ember Morrow was promised to the knights of Conatus at birth, her life traded for her mother's. So when the horsemen come for her, soon after her sixteenth birthday, Ember's not surprised. What does surprise her, though, is the magic the knights wield, the demons they hunt, and the feelings she has for Barrow Hess, the powerful man she serves.

When the knights realize that one among them is dabbling in dark magic, danger heightens and Ember must choose whether to follow the path to darkness or to escape the order and pledge her life to destroying her fellow knights.
With action, adventure, magic, and tantalizing sensuality, this breathtaking prequel to the Nightshade series delves into the history of Bosque Mar and the origin of the rift between the Keepers and the Searchers.

Ember has been promised to the mysterious group, Conatus, since birth. This knowledge has made her restless, unsatisfied with her role as young noblewoman. Sile Bermingham’s youthful tones, colored with a strong Celtic accent, convey Ember’s eagerness to leave her home for a more exciting life at Tearmunn. Though her family is displeased, Ember’s happiness is apparent as she embraces life as a knight of Conatus. Bermingham expresses Ember’s fear as she learns that she will be fighting monsters, her frustration at dealing with an unwanted suitor, and her new fascination for her mentor, Barrow. When a plot to overtake Conatus through black magic is unveiled, Ember learns that not all of their own can be trusted. J.M. © AudioFile 2012, Portland, Maine
