Scheming Against Devotion (Book 2 of The Transition of Pinn)

I vomit. It isn't pretty, it isn’t delicate, and it’s followed by dry heaving as my body seeks to somehow expel what I have just seen. I shouldn’t bother; I will never un-see that. ----- Ivy has just witnessed a terrible truth about Pinn. She is surrounded by aliens who worship though committing secret horrors and a partner who is one of them. Yet, Ivy must be realistic; she is stuck on this planet for the foreseeable future and so she must play her hand well. She must do what she can to survive this world while also building a future she can live with. Giddean is torn between his beliefs and his growing affection for Ivy. Posed to take down the High Priest, he must decide whether he can take on such a powerful and influential person. Giddean must use his wits to save both those subjected to the High Priest’s regime while protecting those he cares about. When those devoted to the High Priest hear of their scheming, Ivy and Giddean must work together or be separated by forces larger than themselves. *** I recommend reading book 1 of this series The Structural Silence first which you can find on my profile page***
