League of Liars

In this fantasy thriller, four teens charged with murder and the illegal use of magic band together to devise the ultimate jailbreak. Perfect for fans of Six of Crows and How to Get Away with Murder.

Ever since his mother was killed, seventeen-year-old Cayder Broduck has had one goal to see illegal users of magic brought to justice. People who carelessly use extradimensional magic for their own self-interest, without a care to the damage it does to society or those around them, deserve the worst kind of punishment as far as Cayder is concerned. Because magic always has a price. So when Cayder lands a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to apprentice under a premier public defender, he takes it. If he can learn all the tricks of public defense, the better he ll be able to dismantle defense arguments when he s a prosecutor. Then he ll finally be able to punish the guilty without mercy.
 
But when he meets the three criminals he s supposed to defend, it no longer seems so black and white. They re teenagers, like him, and their stories are . . . complicated, like his. Vardean, the prison where Cayder s new clients are incarcerated, also happens to be at the very heart of the horrible tear in the veil between their world and another dimension where all magic comes from.
 
League of Liars is a dark and twisty mystery set in a richly-drawn world where nothing is as it seems, rife with magic, villains and danger.
