Sacrament and Smoke: a Blood and Rubies Story

The death of a Saint. The birth of a monster.

Visions of war have haunted the oracle Kira for weeks. Those around her have ignored each warning-even her beloved Saint Hakan-leaving Kira with an impending sense of doom.

An enigmatic and charismatic leader of a growing cult, Hakan is on the verge of achieving the impossible. Monsters and men have gathered to discuss uniting the fractured kingdoms surrounding the Golden Citadel. But there is a dangerous faction who believe Hakan has become too powerful.

In one night, Kira's world is transformed and the love she thought would last a lifetime is reshaped.

Discover the origins of the Saint in this prequel short story to the dark fantasy romance The Dead Saint - book one in the Blood and Rubies series.
