The Darkness in Us: The Talish Trilogy Book 1

Her father died for his secrets. Now they might get her killed. In the divided world of Talish, magic is power, and power is tightly controlled. As a Crafter, Natsu is told to keep her head down, her abilities hidden, and her future planned- a future that comes with working for the Mortal elite. But two years after her father’s execution for practicing Dark Magic, all she wants are answers. When a dead body turns up on her way to a blind date, Natsu is pulled into a chilling conspiracy that traces back to her father’s forbidden research. Each clue drags her deeper into a web of lies, and each step forward comes with a body count. As she delves into her family's past, Natsu discovers her father wasn’t just wielding forbidden magic, he was creating a spell powerful enough to spark a revolution.

On his journey, his neighbour Melanie decides to help Keegan with his exploration. Through his search, Keegan realizes things about himself and those around him that he had never known before. While looking for Laurie, he also finds out how strong the bond between a boy and his sister really is.
