Description:
Sarajane Anderson is your regular
twenty-one year old with family, friends and a normal job. She also happens to
be the only person who can save Saskia, a parallel world to earth.
When Sarajane is taken to Saskia,
she could never have imagined the reality of the world that she is stepping
into- a world where magical abilities are in everyone's possession. She must
face a father she never knew, a world that is beyond her belief, a guardian who
captures her heart; and a darkness that wants to take it. On her journey, Sarajane
discovers her magical abilities, and realizes too that they come with a price.
She is truly tested as her own loved ones are put at risk- the ultimate
question she is forced to ask herself is, how do you choose who lives and who
dies?

Book Excerpt
Chapter Two
Saskia ~ Present Day
(Marta)
The smell of dampness is overpowering. I open my eyes slowly. I am
lying on a concrete floor, shaking with the cold. My wrists and ankles are badly
bruised, my hair clotted with dry blood. As I start to get up, bile rises in my
throat. Steadying myself against the wall causes the sharp, jagged stones to
hurt my back. I stumble to the iron gate of my cell. My lips are cracked and
dry; my throat feels like it is on fire.
“Please, could I have some water?” I rasp.
The guardian sits there, no reply. I can see the tattoo on the back of
his neck. Et Lux in Tenebris Lucet:
And Light Will Shine in
Darkness. It has been twenty-one years since I have seen it. I knew
then I am back in Saskia.
