An epic historical adventure set in an alternate 8th century China, from the author of the 2008 World Fantasy winner, Ysabel. Under Heaven is a novel of heroes, assassins, concubines & emperors set against a majestic & unforgiving landscape. Honour is beyond measure But its price may be an empire? For two years Shen Tai has mourned his celebrated father & lived like a hermit beyond the borders of the Kitan Empire. There, by a mountain lake, the bones of the soldiers killed in great battles between the Kitai & the Tagurans lie unburied & their wailing ghosts strike terror into the living. Tai has laboured alone, laying to rest the mingled dead of both empires, until a letter arrives. It contains the promise of a poisoned chalice: Tai will be given two hundred & fifty Sardian horses by the Tagurans, legendary steeds from the far west, as a reward for his courage & piety. Now, Tai must try to return alive from solitude to a glittering, dangerous court. For to give a man even one of the famed Sardians is to honour him greatly; to give him so many is a reward which would overwhelm an emperor, & could be Tai's death warrant. ...

Product Description

From the outside, the house in Lakeview Terrace looks perfect & the Bigelows seem like the perfect family. But behind closed doors lies a very different story. 

Teenager Zane & his younger sister, Britt, are terrorised by their violent father & dysfunctional mother. Too afraid to speak out, Zane does his best to protect his sister & counts the days until they can finally be free.

One dark, brutal night when their father's temper takes a horrifying turn for the worse, the perfect façade is exposed for the lie it is & Zane & Britt manage to escape. With the help of their beloved aunt, they rebuild their lives a day at a time, creating new families & putting their past behind them. 

But a childhood like that can cast a shadow the length of a lifetime. Can Zane & Britt ever be free of their past? Or will those dark undercurrents rise to the surface, forcing them to fight for their lives once again...
