The Gatekeeper Chronicles #1
Adopted by Brahma Corp’s Assassin Guild and raised as one of their own, Malina Hayes is about to make her fiftieth kill. After bringing down forty-nine of London’s worst criminals, this latest job shouldn’t be a big deal. But if Malina is successful, she’ll receive her first milestone mark. Ascension in the ranks, better pay, and a swanky flat in Soho all sound like very good reasons to make this kill count.But fate and destiny have different plans for Malina. Seconds away from receiving the coveted milestone mark, Malina is torn away from the world she knows and thrust onto a new path—one where the purity of her soul will determine the very fate of mankind. Trouble is, Malina’s kill orders were a lie. The targets she assassinated were innocents, and each one has left a terrible stain on her soul.Stains she must now remove, at any cost.Atoning for the blood of fifty victims is no mean feat, especially for someone who has spent their entire life killing. But if Malina fails, the lock on the gates of the underworld will crumble to dust. And we all know what happens when a legion of demons is unleashed upon the world…Especially when they have their sights set on you.

Jasmine Walt is obsessed with books, chocolate, and sharp, pointy
objects. Somehow, those three things melded together in her head and
transformed into a desire to write. Usually fantastical stuff, with a
healthy dose of action and romance. Her characters are a little (okay, a
lot) on the snarky side, and they swear, but they mean well. Even the
villains sometimes.
When
Jasmine isn't working on her next book, you can find her practicing her
dao sword form, spending time with her family, or binge-watching
superhero shows on Netflix. She loves to hear from her readers, so if
