In Sparta, queens aren't born - they're forged in blood, magic, and betrayal.
Gods once ruled the land. Now drought scours the earth, and a mysterious affliction steals the breath from the living.
Marked by a terrible beauty, Helena is the sole hope of her dying village. For them, she will enter a dangerous competition to become King Menelaus' wife and bring prosperity to her people.
But beauty alone cannot save her. Alone in a dangerous court, Helena must decide whom to trust: a legendary warrior bound to the throne by blood and oath, or a prisoner bearing forbidden magic.
One guards her cage. One whispers how to escape it. And one of them is lying.
