No way to evade the shadows' torment...
A constant undercurrent of pain has weighed down Lucas his entire life. When he turns eleven, shadows only he can see emerge from the darkness, heightening his affliction. Then two years later, his supportive father dies of a heart attack, leaving him with his greedy stepmother.
Nadia desires the fortune her husband left behind, and she'll do anything to wrest it from Lucas's hands. Including establishing that her stepson is completely crazy. She aims to declare him mentally unsound, and in turn take full control of his finances.
Fourteen, Lucas has four more years before he escapes from under his stepmother's thumb. Can he survive that long without proving Nadia right, or will he lose everything his family built, along with his own mind?
Worldhop into the stories of Fate. Each fantastical tale takes place on Earth or Fate, where you'll find magic, tarot cards, and the three cat sisters woven throughout. Though each adventure stands alone, webs connect these fantasies like an elaborate design. What card illuminates your destiny?
