About this listen

Even in a land of eternal twilight, secrets can't stay hidden forever.

Seventeen-year-old Eyelet Elsworth has only one hope left: to find her late father's most prized invention, the Illuminator. It's been missing since the day a mysterious flash wiped the sun from the sky.

Living in darkness is nothing new to Eyelet. She's hidden her secret affliction all of her life—a life that would be in danger if superstitious townspeople ever guessed the truth. Orphaned when her mother is executed for a crime she did not commit, Eyelet sets out to track down the machine—her one and only chance at a cure.

Alone and on the run, she finally discovers the Illuminator—only to witness a young man stealing it. Determined to follow the thief and recover the machine, Eyelet must venture into the deepest, darkest, most dangerous part of her twisted world.

This was a really different and very enjoyable story, the main character can be a tad annoying with the way she speaks at times but you get used to it as the story itself and its characters generally are all very interesting. I TRUST 😋 that most people who listen to this genre of novels will likely enjoy this one, I very much recommend it. I can’t wait for the next book.

HOW MUCH DO YOU TRUST ME?

At first I was not enamoured with this book as it felt like a sense of excitement was artificially enhanced. As it went on I got more invested in the story and it had me on the edge of my seat. It ended however on a cliff hanger. ☹️

Very exciting
