Whenever there was a murder, I found it fun to try and guess who did it... I loved the unpredictability of it all.

Every year, each village is required to send a young woman to the Empire's capital - her fate: to be burned alive for the entertainment of the masses. For the last five years, one small village's tithe has been the same woman. Gilene's sacrifice protects all the other young women of her village, and her […]
