League of Liars

Shadows are dangerous. Edem is illegal. And liars are cowards.

Ever since his mother was killed in a freak edem-based crime, seventeen-year-old Cayder Broduck has had one goal: to have illegal users of the extra-dimensional magic brought to justice. When Cayder secretly accepts an apprenticeship under the city’s best public defender, he wants to learn every legal trick to dismantle defence arguments for when he becomes a prosecutor. Then he’ll finally be able to make sure justice is served.

But the three criminals he is to defend are teenagers, like him, and their stories are … complicated, like his. As their cases unfold, Cayder must race to separate the truth from the lies and uncover what really happened the night his mother died.
