Publisher's Synopsis
Power. No matter how much you have... It might not be enough.
After revealing herself as the heir of Iriha at the King's Annual Celebration, Alina finds herself struggling in her role as queen. She feels lost, buried in regret after trusting the prince that broke her heart. Ruling the kingdom is challenging enough, especially since many of the people in Iriha think she is the one who killed the king. But not knowing why Iolas, the Prince of Vouhan, betrayed her, may cost her more than just her spirit.
Alina not only struggles to navigate the court but she must also find a way to stop the King of Death before the next blood moon. She has months to figure out a plan, but when she gets captured by the deadly king himself and stripped of her powers, she has to trust a familiar face that let her down once before.
In a game of politics and war, the lies she was once led to believe are unraveled one by one. She must be smart, trust the people around her and come up with a way to protect the entire realm. But when the blood moon makes an appearance quicker than expected, it might already be too late.
