FLARESTORM

The epic finale in award-winning global phenomenon, The Torch Trilogy. Who will triumph? Those with songlight, or those without?

LOVE. POWER. REVOLUTION . . .

We can see freedom ahead, we can smell it on the air. Together, our songlight gathers force. As gunfire rages all around us, we find our harmony.

In this world, songlight is either revered or reviled. But now, the rebels are marching on the palace and its time to pick a side . . .

LARK is buried deep underground, summoning the Daughters of Gala to attempt an impossible escape. The Brethren want NIGHTINGALE to be their puppet and they will do anything to get at her powers. PETRA is flying over uncharted land, seeking asylum as she flees the airship she once called home, and RYE is being forced to track her down. PIPER finds himself at the mercy of the indomitable Sealanders whilst SWAN is facing her greatest betrayal yet.

In the final showdown, the fight between those with songlight and those without is erupting on all sides. But as revolution storms the city, a far greater threat than the Brethren looms on the horizon, and, with life and death in the balance, love, trust and loyalty are put to the ultimate test . . .
