Sinopsis

1983, a kibbutz on the bank of the river Jordan. After a fateful protest march and on the eve of her wedding, a young woman leaves for England, never to return. Decades later, her daughter begins to uncover the devastating reality of her mother's childhood in a social experiment that discarded family life in favour of the collective, but can the truth ever be recovered?
Spanning the years from 1967–2010, Night Swimming in the Jordan dives into what it means to grow up in someone else's utopia, where the threat of war is ever present and relationships are coloured by ideology.

    Until recently, Isobel has always loved The Close. A quiet road of large houses tucked away in the beautiful English countryside, it seemed like the perfect place to live. Then, six months ago, a young man was killed in a mysterious hit-and-run incident. The police investigated, but no one was charged, which left a bad feeling in this little community, a feeling that someone knows more than they are saying. So when new neighbor Linette arrives, Isobel thinks it’s the perfect chance to make a fresh start, to repair relationships, and rebuild her community. But someone else has a very different plan, and bad things start to happen. When there’s another death, Isobel realizes her home, her marriage, and her family are all in terrible danger. She is certain that what’s happening is connected to the hit-and-run. But how? What really happened on the night of the fatal accident? And above all, who is Linette, and what does she really want?

    Audiobook edition, narrated by Ariel Kay & Brian Kozak. 
    Nine years ago, my sister died at Firestone Academy. 
    ​ 
    At least, that's what they claim. I don't believe their lies about a tragic accident. 
    ​ 
    Now I've come to face the trials myself - tests that will determine which Quarter I'll serve for the rest of my days. But I have other plans. 
      
    Behind these ancient walls, dark magic pulses through every stone, and three elite shadow weavers rule absolute - The Princes: 
      
    Beaufort Lincoln commands shadows like breathing, his charm masking deadly intent. 
      
    Dray Eros weaves darkness into deadly art, violence wrapped in seductive smiles. 
      
    Thorne Cadieux's silent power makes even teachers tremble. 
      
    They've marked me as theirs, offering protection through the brutal trials in exchange for complete submission. Students break here, crushed by the trials. Most return changed. Others never return at all. 
      
    The Princes may control these halls, but they don't know one thing: I'm not here to find my Quarter, play their games, or surrender to their seduction. 
      
    I'm here to expose the academy's secrets. 
      
    I'm here for my sister. 
      
    And I'll burn their empire to the ground to find the truth. 
      
    *First in a dark academy romance series where vengeance meets seduction, and deadly trials determine your fate.* 
      
    Storm of Shadows is the first book in the Firestone Academy series. This story will not complete in book one and contains some scenes that readers may find challenging.
