Publisher's Synopsis
A new king has been crowned in the midst of the war among races. With the fall of Lynnora Fennwald and King Esen, Ove and Alya are more alone than they have ever been. The two of them quickly learn that their actions have dire consequences. As truths become exposed, they are left with one task: to kill Alden.
Ove must learn to navigate his new responsibilities while protecting those he loves. His past guides his future in every aspect of his life, and his shadows never stop pushing him toward his fate.
Alya's past follows her every step, never leaving her, only scaring her into becoming something else. Death lurks in the corners, stalking her, invoking pain whenever it can.
They have their goal, but without an army, will they be able to do what must be done for the good of all?
