Thea has clawed her way through deadly trials and survived heartbreak, but her greatest battle is still ahead—breaking the curse that binds her while reclaiming her identity in a kingdom that no longer feels like home. Haunted by Cassius' devastating betrayal and the loss of her friends, she's consumed by questions about the man she once trusted completely, and a hunger for vengeance that threatens to consume her entirely. As her prophecy draws closer and the fate of Elloryon hangs by a thread, Thea must navigate a dangerous maze of lies and secrets to discover what's real—and decide who, if anyone, deserves her trust. It's a thrilling blend of dark magic, emotional reckoning, and a reckoning with both the external enemies closing in and the darkness growing within.
