Stunned by the death of their chief, Beliza and the remaining members of the Council must take care of their communities while hunting for the traitorous former council member, Tadjana.
Treated as the interim leader, Beliza has to take on the responsibility despite her lack of experience. While her instincts are beset with premonitions of impending doom, Beliza is comforted by the presence of their powerful elemental guides.
After a sudden attack wreaks havoc in their community and hobbles the elemental guides, the council's coalition is in danger of fracturing. Soon, Beliza and her friends face decisions they have no idea how to make, and evil entities they weren’t trained to fight against.
A riveting fantasy adventure set in a world inspired by Filipino folklore and mythology, THE LAIR OF SHADOWS AND LIGHT is the second book in The Katalonan Chronicles series by Oz Mari G. and S.J. Powell.
