"A hand snuffed out the light. I leaned over the edge of the greenhouse trellis, wooden beams creaking beneath me. The guards, as they had done every night I'd been spying, left soon as Lord del Aer tucked his daughter in, and they followed him through the halls of his estate. His daughter's room was left unguarded except for the ones patrolling the grounds. He couldn't comprehend someone killing his child to get at him. I could. I could because of him. Lord Mattin del Aer was a good father and a terrible leader." -Ruin of Stars by Linsey Miller

Well, that's pretty menacing opening! I need to read more! What about you guys? Happy reading!
