As orphans, they know struggle. But nothing has prepared them for this.
When Nina Lamb arrives at the Daedalus School in New Orleans, she has no memory of life before Hurricane Katrina. But within its walls, she discovers a terrifying truth: Daedalus isn't just a school—it's a battleground. The Saturni, cosmic beings hungry to consume the world, are real. So are their cursed henchmen, the Skin Eaters, raised here from childhood to embrace their monstrous fate.

With her friends Bellocq and Alastaire, Nina unearths deadly secrets—the rebellion of Sister Aquilina, the torment of the school's assistant headmaster, and the voodoo gods imprisoned inside Daedalus. As her own strange powers awaken, she must decide who to trust in a war where nothing is as it seems.

Their fight for survival has only begun.

ORPHANS is the first book in The Saturni series—a dark, atmospheric tale of cosmic horror, ancient magic, and the battle for the soul of the world.
