Sinopsis

The storm that dismantles a dynasty…


1780. Wild and windswept Yorkshire. Sixteen-year-old Heathcliff runs from the only home he has ever known in a squall of pain and fury.


Blown into an inn on the edge of the moors, sodden, rejected, and hankering for revenge, he steals a horse and sets out for Liverpool in search of answers. The town he arrives in is a brutal new world, brimming in equal measure with risk and opportunity. Here, Heathcliff might map his future, make his fortune, forge a role for himself. But at what cost…


Reimagining the three years during which Heathcliff is absent from Wuthering Heights, This Thing of Darkness traverses countries and oceans in pursuit of one of literature's best known characters.

    One day, 14-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find two notes in her mailbox, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?"
    From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning— but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

    But centuries of tradition and ingrained social biases are not so easily swept aside, and when Space Corps brass finds out about their affair, Tor is swiftly arrested. 
     
    Thankfully, help is on the way. Tor assures Azure that he’s friends with a brilliant lawyer who specialises in alpha and omega cases. The news is heartening… until Azure finds out that Tor’s flashy new lawyer is none other than Ethan McCallum, the omega who first taught Tor how to go through a heat, all those years ago. 
     
    But Ethan has an agenda all his own. Though brilliant, he’s also manipulative, underhanded, and doggedly determined to get his own way as he stirs the pot of social unrest and attempts to rewrite the injustices of history. 
     
    And so, as tensions heat and centuries of social customs are called into question, Azure will have to make a choice: team up with his arch nemesis or wave goodbye to his and Tor’s happily ever after. 
     
    Tor and Azure's story began in Hurricane and continued in Deluge. Books are best read in order.
