Between Volcanoes

By Roan St. John

Between Volcanoes follows Maya Warwick as she confronts the most dangerous adversary she has ever faced-someone who knows her intimately.

Lucien Desmarais is everything Maya has ever wanted: cultured, charismatic, and effortlessly persuasive. With promises of a life in Provence, he offers a future that feels both romantic and inevitable. Their marriage begins like a fairytale. It does not remain one.

What first appears as charm slowly reveals itself as control. Periods of devotion are followed by chaos, manipulation, and relentless financial pressure. As Maya begins to recognize the pattern, she realizes that Lucien lives by rules of his own-and that she may have become the next step in a long and carefully constructed scheme.
In an attempt to salvage their marriage and escape the escalating tension, they relocate to Malpa s, a tropical paradise that attracts dreamers, opportunists, and those with reasons to disappear. For a time, the illusion holds. Then Lucien becomes involved with dangerous men whose reach extends far beyond the isthmus.

As threats close in, Maya is forced to make a choice that will define the rest of her life. One decision. One moment. One silence she can never undo.

The truth of what happened to Lucien is known only to her. But secrets have a way of resurfacing-sometimes years later, in the hands of people who understand their value.

The consequences of that choice will follow Maya far beyond Malpa s, shaping the life she builds in Provence and the alliances she will one day be forced to make.

Set against the seductive beauty and hidden violence of Malpa s, Between Volcanoes is a slow-burn thriller about power, deception, and the quiet decisions that change everything.
