The gods were dead…. at least as far as Evina Ariss, the high priestess of Riveness was concerned.

How else could she explain a meaningless life relegated to an endless charade of ceremony on the island she called both home and prison? However, the lies holding her captive begin to unravel one crisp autumn night when a vicious general named Ashwin runs ashore with deadly intentions. But there is more at stake than her life, for she is bound inextricably to Riveness’ most cherished secret— a portal to a realm of darkness so deep it could swallow everything, and if she dies, so too dies the last chance to keep the portal closed. 

Evina, her fiancé Rein and best friend Kara, soon find themselves desperately seeking a way to keep her alive. But as the lies that define Evina’s life crumble, she learns one, final, terrifying truth she would do almost anything to forget. Rich with suspense, enthralling characters, plot twists and vivid world-building, Keys to the Moon is a tale of love and lust, lies and loyalty that delves into the deepest chasms of the heart to uncover what drives its desire to beat, even after being torn apart.
