When you play with fire, someone always gets burned. The sequel to the cut-throat YA fantasy, Inferno's Heir. Perfect for fans of Six of Crows and These Violent Delights.
An underdog Queen crosses the Black Sea. Is she sailing home, or to her own demise?
Teia Carthan knew that becoming queen wouldn't make her any friends. She sacrificed everything - home, friends, blood, even love - to hear the whisper of her new title. Highness.
When Teia finds herself shipwrecked in Shaylan with an important message to deliver, she's forced to confront the limits of her royal power and past. Reunited with the only people who can help keep the Five Kingdoms from Civil War-the very rebels she betrayed to take the throne. Together, they set out on a dangerous journey against the elements to flush out the real serpent in the royal court, coiled and waiting to strike.
But will she stand firm against the undertow and protect the kingdom, or succumb to her own darkness?
