Book 2 in the US DARK FEW series - Khalani survived the prison. Now she faces the lie.

You are the poem I dare not write.
It's safer to keep the perilous passages within me, than unleash them upon this stricken Earth.

Haunted by the Governor of Apollo's dark secrets, Khalani and her crew of criminals embark on a new perilous journey. The truest test begins as Khalani ventures through the treacherous "Death-Zone" toward the nearest underground city, Hermes. But abandoned relics and violent storms aren't the only threats on the barren road. Takeshi Steele has resumed his cold detachment, and unsettling signs suggest they aren't alone.

To survive in this unforgiving world, Khalani must draw on her strength and harrowing experiences from Apollo. For a new kind of prison awaits in the corrupt city of Hermes - one where she finds herself trapped with the man who aggravates her the most. But this time, they may not escape alive.

On the surface of the Earth, only the ruined remain.
