Jovias and the Exiled Seven were formed for a singular purpose: to protect humanity rather than to dominate it. Their commitment to mercy, even in the face of disaster, led them to choose compassion over destruction. As a consequence of this choice, they were stripped of their wings and cast into exile, condemned to walk the earth as guardians who must conceal their true identities from those they protect. Throughout the centuries, the Seven are confronted by judgment and loss, and challenged by evil that works not through direct confrontation, but in more subtle ways that erode faith from within. Each trial they face tests not only their strength, but also their obedience and their capacity for hope. Despite the hardships of exile, the Seven remain driven by a singular promise: to ensure that light endures, even when separated from their former glory. Their journey is marked by perseverance, where faith is hard-won, victory is never guaranteed, and redemption demands unwavering endurance.

He comes with a new story to tell, and Vinnia may be the only one who can hear it.

***Foray* into this *highly* entertaining and thrilling mystery series where Stephanie Beroe, risks everything to combat the dark side of the one percent.** After surviving an incident last year against the ultra-rich, Stephanie and Remy Beroe have relocated to a quiet town outside of Santa Fe, New Mexico with the hope of a simple life. But burgeoning anger consumes her husband. He becomes obsessed by the billionaires that literally got away with murder last year. His preoccupation grows as the same privileged men continue to profit from their greed in an off-kilter world. “Never plan a murder out loud,” he states while plying Stephanie with endless safety gadgets; tokens of his mania, and comparing regulations for legal cannabis to nuclear energy. When bodies start turning up, he’s questioned by the police, then nuclear transport trucks start blowing up, dismantling cities and killing thousands of people. Stephanie contemplates whether this is masked hysteria? A terrorist act? Or simply her man gone over the edge. While empowering a unique group of friends, she constructs the ultimate Dantean retribution for the men who have driven her husband mad, while attempting to save Remy from himself? *Fool Me Once* female grit meets *Ocean’s Thirteen* flare and ingenuity speckled with Amelia Peabody, and Agatha Christie back bone.  As usual, Stephanie surrounds herself with a unique friend group that includes a college bestie also from New Jersey, a media mogul, a billionaire’s discarded son, an Egyptian Empire’s, discarded lesbian daughter, an industry scion, and several survivors from the previous year’s incident who all have reasons to be angry. Hiding in Egypt, they all have reasons to seek revenge– but retribution, as Stephanie realizes is a double-edged sword as she weighs out everything they stand to lose, by delivering it.

She believes in the mission: consensus must be maintained, or everything falls apart. Then her daughter starts drawing things that haven't happened yet. At first, Elena rationalizes. Children have active imaginations. The drawings are coincidences. But the details are too precise, the events too specific. Her daughter isn't predicting the future—she's *choosing* it. Believing it into existence with the unshakeable conviction only a child possesses. According to Threshold protocol, Elena knows exactly what must be done with individuals who can unilaterally reshape reality. She's ordered it herself, dozens of times. Now she has to decide: protect the consensus that keeps the world stable, or protect her daughter from the organization Elena has served her entire adult life. As Elena digs deeper, she discovers her daughter may not be an anomaly at all—but the result of deliberate manipulation. Someone is awakening Believers. And Elena's daughter might be the first success in a plan to unmake everything The Threshold has built.
