City of Lies and Legends

City of Lies and Legends is the third novel in Kayla Edwards' House of Devils series. When Darkslayer Darien Cassel learns that his human protégé Loren Calla has fallen into a coma, he abandons everything to search Terra for a rumored place capable of restoring her — a departure that sends his best friend Maximus Reacher on his own perilous path, uncovering buried family secrets he did not go looking for.

In the historic city of Yveswich, a parallel thread follows Roman Devlin of the House of Black and Shay Cousens, a shapeshifting Selkie and pickpocket from a rival Darkslaying house, as their search for Shay's missing sister leads them into the secrets of the Phoenix Head Society and a mysterious restorative body of water with consequences for their whole world.

Told across multiple perspectives, the novel widens the House of Devils universe while deepening its central romances and found-family relationships, and is the series' darkest, grittiest installment to date.
