On an alternative 21st-century Earth in which our
world is one of many in the Multiverse, the Inter-World Alliance exists to keep
the peace between the worlds, and keep the monsters out.
Ada Fletcher is twenty-one, keeps a collection of
knives in her room, and is more interested in fighting than her day job as a
cashier. She also risks her life on a daily basis, helping refugees from a
devastating magical war on her homeworld hide on the low-magic Earth. But when
she’s taken into custody by the Alliance, her unusual magic makes her a prime
suspect for a supervisor’s suspicious death.
For Kay Walker, whose family founded the organization,
there has never been any doubt that his future is with the Alliance – even if
it means dealing with sarcastic centaurs and dangerous monsters in the dark
Passages between worlds. But when his supervisor is murdered, Kay discovers
that a research project might have been the reason, and faces the choice of
whether to ignore his instincts or risk becoming the next target, not to
mention digging into the Alliance’s history and memories he’d rather keep
buried. And there’s something not quite right about the strange, fierce girl he
arrested as a suspect.
The last thing Ada wants is to help the infuriating
Alliance guard who arrested her, but it soon becomes clear that the Alliance
knows too much about Ada’s offworld origins. More, in fact, than she knows
herself. Now she has to choose between loyalty to her family, and helping the
Alliance save the Earth – and the Multiverse – from a deadly enemy.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Emma spent her childhood creating imaginary
worlds to compensate for a disappointingly average reality, so it was probably
inevitable that she ended up writing speculative fiction. She was born in
Birmingham, UK, which she fled at the first opportunity to study English
Literature at Lancaster University. In her three years at Lancaster, she hiked
up mountains, skydived in Australia, and endured a traumatic episode involving
a swarm of bees in the Costa Rican jungle. She also entertained her creative
writing group and baffled her tutors by submitting strange fantasy tales
featuring dragons and supernatural monsters to workshops. These included her
first publication, a rather bleak dystopian piece, and a disturbing story about
a homicidal duck (which she hopes will never see the light of day).
Now a reluctant graduate, Emma refuses to
settle down and be normal. When not embarking on wild excursions and writing
fantasy novels, she edits and proofreads novels for various publishing houses
and reads an improbable number of books. Emma is currently working on the
Alliance series, a multiple-universe adult fantasy featuring magic, monsters,
cool gadgets and sarcasm. Her upper-YA urban fantasy Darkworld series is
published by Curiosity Quills Press.
