The Midnight Warriors
Dive into the captivating world of “The Midnight Warriors,” the debut novel by Nirmani Walpola, a vibrant new voice straight from the heart of Sri Lanka, now making waves from Texas. As a part-time author, part-time reader, and a full-time teenager, Nirmani brings fresh energy and insight into the world of young adult fiction.
In just four words: Secrets, Friendship, Risk, Identity. “The Midnight Warriors” unravels the tale of Clara and Damien, two high school students with nothing in common but their enduring friendship and a shared secret that could alter their lives forever. By day, they navigate the challenges of middle school; by night, they are teenage assassins caught in a web of deception, duty, and destiny. When Damien goes missing, Clara is faced with a choice that could save her friend or doom them both. It’s a story of loyalty, identity, and the lengths we go to protect those we care about.
About Nirmani
Nirmani had wanted to write ever since she wrote about a tooth fairy who was an absolute girl boss when she was 5. Of course, back then, the only thing she cared about was when she was going to get more iPad time to play My Little Pony.
Now, when she’s not battling the joys of high school or writing her next novel, she’s catching up with her friends and family, playing with her dog, dancing and spinning with her colorguard team, playing tennis, baking, playing piano, singing, or competing in FFA and FCCLA. 9/10 of the time, you can find her cuddled up with a book and maybe a snack or two. (She might let you sneak a snack if you ask nicely enough.)
