This Treacherous Night

By M. Stevenson

In this sweeping YA romantasy for fans of Six of Crows and Fable, five magic-wielding teens must pull off an impossible heist after the sun god is stolen and the world is plunged into darkness--but when the stakes turn personal and they uncover a larger plot to bring down the gods, will they stay loyal to saving the world or just themselves?

A stolen sun, a ticking clock, an endless night... and a score to settle.

Ever since her family was betrayed and murdered, Talia has survived by staying invisible--a smuggler who trusts no one and hides her illusion magic. But when the God of the Sun is stolen from the sky, plunging the world into endless night, she's recruited for an impossible heist: steal back the sun... from the very man who killed her family.

Eager for a chance at vengeance, Talia joins a volatile crew of four other teens, each armed with magic, secrets, and motives of their own. A pickpocket. A runaway. Death's own hand. A loyal brother. Together, they'll have to sail through dangerous waters, infiltrate a heavily guarded island fortress, and free the captive god.

But as loyalties shift and buried truths come to light, the heist begins to unravel. Because darkness has a way of exposing every secret--and powerful forces will do anything to ensure the sun never rises again.
