Crail

Ten thousand humans dead in one night.

The Mount Marlow massacre is a stain on the history of Bridaide City, even ten years later. How can the world forgive Malignants when five of them killed so many humans and were never brought to justice?

Malignants, terrifying users of magic who can transform into beasts, walk undetected throughout the country, defying the monarch's hunters sent to capture them.
When a hunter knocks on Ryan Zotal's door one afternoon, Ryan realises the terrible truth about his pregnant wife and stepson. And when a band of Malignants takes them to Crail, a secret city deep in the country's central rainforest, Ryan has never felt more alone. Held captive and tortured, he starts plotting his escape from this city of murderers with his new baby.

But as Ryan bides his time, he discovers more about the Malignants and the power they wield. When he learns the shocking truth behind the Mount Marlow massacre, he realises that Malignants aren't the only ones telling lies.

As Ryan unravels fact from fiction, hunters close in on the location of Crail. Ryan must choose between returning to the world he has always lived in, or building a new future with his family.
