Description

A family shattered. A son lost to darkness. A forgotten magic that could save or condemn them all.

When Matthew Marks miraculously returns from the Shadow Realm years after his presumed death, his family rejoices. But their joy is short-lived. Matthew is not the man he once was; he wields terrifying powers, his soul stained by the dark realm he escaped, and his memories of his wife, Maurelle, inexplicably erased.

As Matthew sets out on a vengeful path against Rivers Peak and its inhabitants, his son, Shawn, is plagued by chilling nightmares—visions of his father's brutal ascent to power, and the shocking revelation that Matthew is now the Shadow King. Meanwhile, a distraught Maurelle, who also lost her memories, struggles with a dangerous, forgotten power and the terrifying truth about her own family's past and the man who kidnapped her.

The Marks family is thrust into a desperate fight to reclaim their loved ones from the growing darkness, but a web of ancient secrets, devastating magic, and heartbreaking betrayals threatens to tear them apart forever. Can love truly conquer all, or will the Shadow Realm claim them for good?
