The Lost Heroes (Chronicles of a Sentinel, Volume 2) After the heroic Siege of Green Arbor, Sentinels Ava and Talon are dispatched on a critical mission deep into the treacherous northern territories. But what was meant to be a routine operation soon turns into a nightmare when they are ambushed by a ruthless group of raiders. Their convoy is destroyed, their team scattered, and they are forced to fight for survival in the wilderness.  Back in Green Arbor, weeks pass with no word from the Sentinels. The town is consumed by fear and uncertainty, with many believing Ava and Talon have fallen. Even those closest to them, like Eli and Miko, begin to lose hope. The mayor pushes for a funeral in their honor, urging the town to move on from their loss. But not everyone is willing to let go, especially when strange events start to unfold. Unbeknownst to Green Arbor, Ava and Talon are far from dead. Injured and on the run, they navigate the wilds, pursued relentlessly by enemies from Talon’s past—dangerous figures from the Syndicate, a criminal organization he once fled. As their enemies close in, Talon is forced to confront the dark truths he’s kept hidden, even from Ava. Their return to Green Arbor is nothing short of miraculous, but their homecoming is only the beginning. Secrets, long buried, threaten to tear their fragile world apart. As Ava wrestles with Talon’s revelations, she must decide whether to trust her closest ally or protect her new family from the shadows that haunt him. In this thrilling continuation of the **Chronicles of a Sentinel**, the heroes must face not only external enemies but also the ghosts of their past. The battle for survival becomes a battle for redemption as they fight to save both Green Arbor and themselves. -
