My Review: This book is going on my top reads of 2026! I loved this story so much! It is part of a series, so it ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, but enough was resolved by the end of this book to be satisfying! I LOVED the strong faith woven deep into the characters, who faced a lot of persecution and the challenges of their various stations, along with the risk of losing their lives and risking others by sharing their faith. The writing is beautiful and engaging, and the author builds a beautiful world with some themes similar to Esther’s story in the Bible. She dives into many questions surrounding what to do when your faith is challenged and sharing the truth with others when (the characters’) world is under heavy persecution. It’s very low fantasy with an easily grasped fantasy world, which I liked as someone who gets easily confused.

Cleveland, Ohio, 1915
After being the only witness to a socialite’s death, Aurora Murphy’s quiet life as a department store clerk turns into a far more deadly one. When someone breaks into her apartment and leaves a horrifying threat, Aurora goes to the one and only person she can trust– her coworker, Leo. Can she get to safety before they both become victims?
Leo Greene doesn’t usually stir up trouble. As department store security, he’s the one who puts an end to any mishaps. But when Leo’s coworker comes to him begging for protection, he realizes she brings more trouble than he ever imagined. They board a locomotive to escape the danger, but as the train chugs along, Leo must stay one step ahead or risk losing the audacious young woman he has come to care for.
