A rich portrait of post-Victorian England, The Deepest
Night seamlessly blends thrilling romance with riveting
history and adventure—perfect for fans of Libba Bray and
Lauren Kate.
It’s 1915, and sixteen-year-old Lora
Jones is finishing up her first year as a charity student at
Iverson, a prestigious, gothic boarding school on England’s
southern coast. While she’s always felt different from
everyone around her, now she finally knows why: She is a
drákon, a rare, enchanted being with astonishing
magical abilities.
As war hits Britain’s
shores, and Lora reels from an unimaginable loss, she finds
that her powers come with grave and dangerous
responsibilities. At the request of Armand Louis, the darkly
mysterious boy whose father owns Iverson, Lora will spend
her summer at his lavish estate. To help the war effort—and
to keep Lora near—Armand turns his home into a military
hospital, where Lora will serve as a nurse. For Armand is
inescapably drawn to her—bound to her by heart-deep secrets
and a supernatural connection that runs thicker than
blood.
Yet while Lora tries to sort out her
own feelings toward Armand, fate offers an unexpected
surprise. Lora discovers there is another drákon, a
prisoner of war being held in Germany. And that only she,
with her newly honed Gifts, will be able to rescue him.
With Armand at her side, Lora will cross enemy
lines on an incredible mission—one that could bond her to
Armand forever, or irrevocably tear them apart.
Beautifully written, deeply romantic, and filled
with daring adventure and magic, The Deepest Night is
a mesmerizing novel of the enduring pull of destiny, and the
eternal strength of love.
