Darkest Ambitions (Sovereigns of the Storm)

Lust for Life? Or lust for Death?

Nightminster is at the threshold of success. Victorina Krossington – beautiful, intelligent, wealthy – accompanies him to the biggest New Year Party in London. They are the star couple of the night.

What could go wrong now?

Diehards in the Krossington clan could assassinate him for being so insolent as to love Victorina. Detectives of the great ZEEBRI complex could hang him for the murder of Jumping Jackson. The militant Official SUN Party could take power over London, forcing him to flee forever.

But Nightminster knows how to bide his time and strike back stronger. In old records from the Public Era, he traces evidence of a long-forgotten island of the Krossingtons hidden in the vast marshes of eastern England. It’s the perfect location for Target Hundred Thousand. The question is, how can he get his hands on it? And how can he turn it into a fountain of gold?

For all his talents, Nightminster cannot see he is being subtly corrupted. When he finally gets what he wants, it turns out to be hell on Earth.

And it’s too late to turn back. Only triumph or death await him now.

Darkest Ambitions is the second book in the Sovereigns of the Storm dystopian series.
