Queen Sorrow has survived monsters, a coup, and open defiance of the gods, yet the man who still holds her heart may be the enemy she cannot face.
Matthias, once her shelter and her strength, is bound to the empress and sent after her by day, by night, and even through their dreams.
She flees with her loyal wolf, desperate to break the dark magic on him and reclaim the throne taken from her before time runs out.
Rebel territory is the last refuge beyond the empress's control, and reaching it leaves her with nowhere left to run.
Love might free them both, or the bond between them might bring their kingdom down.
