Only the elite have a voice in Cortem…
Nyx and Roanna have always taken for granted the oppressive caste system they live under in Cortem, where every citizen is forced to wear the color of their primary sin, and dissension leads to rehabilitation – lobotomy. As the twin children of Sovran Saul, they are privileged Blues: rich, powerful, and protected. They are also Gifted; possessing extraordinary powers which would see them rehabilitated if ever exposed.

Roanna has another secret; an online friendship with Maverick, a rebel with his own Gift for uncovering hidden truths. As he targets Roanna for information, his friends seek to entrap Nyx too, all with one goal: to gain control of the country and dismantle its oppressive regime. But the group’s plans are threatened when Roanna’s father decides it’s time for her to marry, leaving Maverick scrambling to prevent the unholy alliance.

Amid a violent attack, cruel trial, and disturbing human auction, Roanna and Nyx must decide who to trust and what’s worth saving in a society teetering on the edge of rebellion.

As the Gifted are hunted down and the Lower Colors denied voice or power, dark family secrets, fateful confrontations, and unexpected romance force Roanna to question everything she’s ever known in Acolyte.
