Discover the stunning second book in the Bristol Keats fantasy duology, filled with swoon-worthy romantasy, faeries and non-stop action, from Sunday Times bestselling author Mary E. Pearson.
Everyone needs something to hold onto, even if it’s a lie.
After Bristol nearly loses King Tyghan to the monsters her mother unleashed, the couple’s love deepens to a whole new level. But, when a beloved knight dies, Bristol is forced to confront the fact that her mother is more powerful than she could ever have imagined – and more dangerous, too.
Meanwhile, Tyghan’s heart is laid bare when he re-encounters his betrayer and former best friend – Bristol’s father – and must wrestle with a new secret that throws into question everything he thought he knew about his past. Bristol is the kingdom’s last chance for survival, but where do her loyalties truly lie? If she fully embraces the magic that has always been her birthright, she could become a monster herself. Is she willing to risk losing the people she loves most if it means keeping them safe?
