Curse of the Celts (The Once and Future Queen, Book 2)

You are accused of crimes against the Code. How do you plead?
 
After failing to escape the Roman metropolis of Londinium with Devyn, her lover, and Marcus, her betrothed, Cassandra wakes in inky darkness to find the ground giving way to sand beneath her feet.
 
All three of them have been carted back to the notorious arena at the heart of the city to stand trial by public vote. Cass knows they must escape at any cost: to warn the Celts of the mysterious blood curse ravaging their kin, to foil the schemes of the imperial council
 
To find the fabled Lady of the Lake, the one who could save them all.
 
But even as the jaws of death close in around her, another threat looms in the shadows, a danger she never could have foreseen, a betrayal that could burn down her entire world.
 
Fans of The Hunger Games will revel in this sweeping dystopian adventure set in an alternate fantasy universe where the Roman Empire never fell.

I couldnt put it down. There were times when I gasped, when I cried and when I felt my jaw drop. The world Clara OConnor has woven together is so intricate and real and the storytelling is flawless. Absolutely my favourite series I have read this year Jessica, 5* NetGalley review
