The Hidden King: Bloodbath at His Daughter’s Wedding

Synopsis

In a wasteland split between the shining Upper Section and the savage Underhive, Avis Grayson — the Governor who drove out the beasts, founded the Upper Section, and ruled from the Underhive — lost everything when his wife Angela was murdered. He walked away from power, became a nameless rogue trader, and raised their daughter Anne alone. On Anne's wedding day, her groom Arthur — son of Jim, the lord of the Upper Section — and his friend Will turned on her: humiliating her, beating her, and throwing her from a rooftop. The girl was left in a coma. And the gentle trader they'd all dismissed? He put the Governor's mantle back on and set the underworld ablaze in her name — the Hill and Jones families, the elites of the Upper Section, every hand that had touched his daughter. Desperate to save Anne, Avis found Erin, an apothecary with the exact face of his dead wife — Angela's long-lost twin. As past and present collided, his old enemy Jackson seized the moment and took them both — and met the Enforcers at the end of the line. Anne finally woke. She refused to forgive the man who'd destroyed her, and chose to live on with her father instead. And Erin, who'd come to love the man behind the legend, asked him for forever. In a garden, their family photograph echoed the one from years ago — and a broken family was finally whole.
