Here's a blurb:
"Weakness will betray you."
As the prince, Troy is the envy of his peers. For the slaves that serve him he’ll never know what it’s like to go hungry nor what it’s like to be bought and sold like a new pair of sandals. But they didn’t know that being at the top comes at a cost.
From the education he receives to the exotic meals he had for supper everything is carefully planned. Just like his future role as Mediator, even though he feels anything but prepared for the role. Nor is he prepared to face the anniversary of the Quake that took the one person he loved the most.
He’s ready to bury himself into his routine. To forget the pain that still haunts him. Then something unexpected happened. He sees it first. Hiding in his family’s villa is a mysterious dog which appears seemingly out of nowhere. He doesn’t know how or why it came for him but he knows that the two share an unexplainable bond. But the dog is not safe in his possession and if he stays, he could face a cruel end. Now everything Troy was taught to be believe is quickly crumbling as he’s confronted with conflicting loyalties.
He must choose between honor vs. dishonor. Conformity vs. individuality. Lies vs. truth. Grief vs. joy. Safety vs. freedom. What he chooses in the end could shock his family…and himself.
In this thought-provoking coming of age tale discover the power of friendship, life after loss, and finding your voice.
