  In the ashes of a fallen kingdom, Princess Stephanie Hill is the last ember of a slaughtered people. Hunted by the very empire that destroyed her home, her only shield is the man she should despise: Prince Alexander, the Emperor’s rebel son. Stephanie is a weapon of last resort, cursed with a power no one has wielded in a millennium—Vespertine magic, a volatile fusion of her people’s sacred light and the enemy’s devouring shadow. To master it is to find harmony; to fail is to be torn apart from within. 
  But the tyrant they flee is more than a conqueror. Emperor Brown seeks not to rule the world, but to end it. He communes with the Maw, a cosmic entity of pure hunger, planning to merge with it during the coming Crimson Eclipse. His goal is apotheosis: to unmake reality and forge a new universe of perfect, eternal silence. Stephanie and Alexander are not just fighting for their lives; they are the last defense against the erasure of all existence. 
  With the clock ticking down to oblivion, these two fugitives must forge a treacherous alliance with a brilliant, power-hungry chancellor who would see them both dead. Blending the sprawling worlds of epic fantasy with the chilling dread of cosmic horror, this is a desperate race against time, a high-stakes thriller where the only thing more dangerous than the god they must kill is the ally they are forced to trust. Can they master the power of twilight before it consumes them, or will the entire universe be swallowed by the Maw?

  'Ventures where only a novel can - inside the mind of a character. The novel is addictive.' - Manu Joseph 
  'A tingling meditation on impermanence - nourishment, need, aloneness, the heart's acoustic of spade moving soil, hitting stone.' - Sumana Roy 
   
  A haunting quest for home... Pandita writes with the precision of a journalist and the soul of a poet.' -Scroll.in 
   
  Neel is a journalist drawn to war zones. It's in these spaces riven by conflict that his sense of dislocation, of not belonging anywhere, drops off him. At all other times, he's in quest, seeking solid ground: a home. It is a pursuit that takes him halfway across the world to America and back to the urban dystopia of Delhi, headlong into fleeting relationships that glimmer with the promise of shelter 
  Is Neel—haunted by the past and exiled from the present—likely to find what he desires in ephemeral associations? Will he chance upon the quiet anchorage he seeks in short-term dwellings and the objects he gathers within them-coffee percolators and rugs, posters and penknives? Or is the home he so badly wants elsewhere? Not in the noise and blood and lust outside, but in some sanctuary within? 
  Our Friends in Good Houses—renowned journalist Rahul Pandita's first novel-takes a precarious double journey, into the world and into the heart.  
  Vulnerable, provocative and astute, it is one of the finest explorations yet of the long road to a place called home.
