The Story
Built by long-gone Saints, the city of Vaiwyn lives and breathes and bleeds. As a Keeper, Mina knows better than most what her care of Vaiwynâs bells means for the sentient city. Itâs the Strauss familyâs thousand-year legacy - prevent the Vespers from ringing, or they will awake a slumbering evil.
One afternoon, to Mina's horror, her bell peals thirteen times, shattering the cityâs tenuous peace. With so much of the city's history and lore lost in a long-ago disaster, no one knows the danger that has been unleashed - until the city begins to fight back. As the sun sets, stone gargoyles and bronze statues tear away from their buildings and plinths to hunt people through the streets. Trapped in Minaâs bell, the soul of a twisted and power-hungry Saint festered. Now free of his prison, he hides behind the face of one of Vaiwynâs citizens, corrupting the city and turning it on itself.
As the death toll rises, the only chance Mina has to stop the destruction and horrific killings is finding and destroying the Saintâs host. Everyone is a suspect, including Mina's closest loved ones. She will have to decide how far sheâll go to save her city - and who sheâs willing to kill to do it.
