The Exiles (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798992589344)

She's lost so much already. But to pretend she's safe now could cost her even more.

Nothing could have prepared Nyssa Ardelone for the treachery that lurks inside Fortune's Fall. What began as a joyful reunion with her family soon plunges into chaos, with Nyssa at the center of misplaced accusations that could be catastrophic for everyone. Confused and still grief-stricken over the friends she's lost, Nyssa begins to question whether her journey to Fortune's Fall was worth the cost.

When she learns that President Omri has arrested the exiles and plans to send them to the most notorious prison in America, Nyssa's convinced Omri's punishing them for her sins, and she sinks into even deeper despair. But there might be a way to save them, and Nyssa jumps at the chance to remedy what she feels is her fault.

The task is dangerous, though, and if she fails, she'll lose everything. If she succeeds, the people of Fortune's Fall will embrace her at last, and the path will open for their ultimate return to Maren-the home Omri stole from them fifteen years ago. With the help of family and a few unlikely allies, Nyssa sets out to make things right. But the stakes are higher than before, and her newfound faith has grown shaky. When the mission doesn't go as planned, Nyssa faces a choice unlike any she's ever had: press on despite her doubts, or give up and leave the exiles-and everyone she loves-to their fate.
