Ashveil (Ashveil: The Ashveil Chronicles)

By Ela Nor

He does not hunt demons. He sees the ones people carry.
Rowan Raithe built his empire in Ashmoor on secrets, illegal deals, blood money, and beautifully controlled lies.
A ruthless fixer with a talent for making problems disappear, Rowan knows the city's darkest rooms, its richest monsters, and the price of every soul for sale. In Ashmoor, power belongs to those who can stomach the truth.
Then an assassination should have killed him.
Instead, Rowan wakes changed.
Now he sees what no one else can.
Not horned creatures hiding in shadows. Not fairy-tale evil waiting beneath the bed. These demons walk beside ordinary people - whispering, tempting, feeding on greed, guilt, lust, rage, and every choice that drags a human being closer to becoming something worse.
To everyone else, Ashmoor looks normal.
To Rowan, the city is alive with hunger.
And one demon has been with him longer than he knows.
Fex is sarcastic, dangerous, impossible to silence, and far too entertained by Rowan's suffering. He is not a saviour. He is not exactly an enemy. He is the thing in the dark that knows Rowan's sins by name.
As the Veil between worlds begins to tear, Rowan discovers that his survival was no accident. His name, his bloodline, and the life he thought he understood were built on buried lies.
But Rowan was never born to be a hero.
He was born to understand the monsters.
To command them.
And perhaps to become the most dangerous one of all.
When the people closest to him are pulled into Ashmoor's hidden war, Rowan must face a terrifying truth: the city's demons are not invading from somewhere else.
They are growing from within.
This is not an ordinary demon-hunter story. It is not a simple monster story, and it is not a tale obsessed with evil for the sake of evil.
In Ashmoor, monsters are not born.
They are made by human choice.
And Rowan must decide whether to save the city from darkness - or become the darkness strong enough to rule it.
Dark, cinematic, and addictive, Ashveil is a supernatural crime fantasy filled with morally grey characters, gothic city atmosphere, dangerous bloodline secrets, demonic temptation, forbidden power, and a demon companion readers will not forget.
