City of Day - Deadly by Night

By day, Asrtera is a bustling port city with shops, markets, shipyards, and people going about their day to day lives. But every night when the sun sets, the people of Astera board ships and abandon their home to dark, murderous ghosts -- The Vaim.

Thislen lost his father to the vengeful spirits years ago and has barely survived on the streets as a common thief since. He dreams of escaping the dark truths of the island for good, but a family secret keeps him tied to the island and the oppressive Ruling Council. When he finds he is not the

only one avoiding the entitled and sadistic gaze of Astera's nobility, Thislen

plans to help the gentle healer Mila leave everything behind to save them both

• him from secrets and her from an unwanted marriage.

However, Lord Soren Bestant, head of the Ruling Council and spurned suitor, won't let them go so easily. Caught and sentenced to a night on the island and the mercy of the Vaim, Thislen's only hope is to reveal his family's secret to save them, or die. But Mila's family has a secret of its own, as does the Ruling Council.

The Vaim are not what they seem -- and the fate of the kingdom hangs on the truth.

City of Day is the first novel of Astera from October K. Santerelli (Storm's Eye).
