Who wins in a deadly game of trust?
Cian’s entire life has seemingly been a lie, since his true nature was hidden away at birth to conceal a secret that makes him invaluable to all the wrong people. Now he’s been captured by the Imperium for breaking their magical laws, allowing his enemies to close in.
His only chance at freedom lies in the hands of his friends, who are a force to be reckoned with all on their own.
Allying himself with the necromancer who crippled his friend, he seeks out the middleman who contracted them in order to discover their employer in the hopes that it will keep the Imperium off his back.
If that weren’t enough, he has to attend his arranged marriage to Eilidh, the fae woman who might be his salvation…or his downfall. When the Sisters crash the reception, his plans unravel faster than a fraying tapestry.
The group has his mother. They want his blood. They are determined to use both to free a goddess whose prison has held for centuries.
With time running out, and loved ones in danger, does Cian need to make the impossible choice of saving his new wife or protecting the mother he now knows never willingly abandoned him?
Sometimes the most dangerous power isn’t found in spells or chains—it'''s found in the heart.
Will Cian’s true nature be enough to outsmart the Sisters and their ancient goddess, saving everyone he loves? Or will a desperate gamble unleash a force that will destroy everything he’s fought to protect?
Genre: Fantasy
