Welcome to the House of Lyrith, where blood is currency and lies are a way of life.
Ever since a massacre left her memories shattered, Bellanthe has avoided seeking truths that may be too poisonous to swallow. Belonging to the House of Lyrith is safe. They hunt the demigods and the curses that destroyed her first home.
But when the man who took her in is found dead, everything begins to unravel, and Bellanthe finds herself framed for a second murder by a traitor within her House.
Dragged into the perils of the Abyss—where singing fogs and bloodthirsty trees lurk—Bellanthe schemes against the traitor under the guise of cooperation. She’ll make him admit he framed her in a game of wits he doesn’t see coming. Sharp-tongued and perceptive, Casiel is a tomb of secrets she is reluctant to open. And he'll stop at nothing to get his hands on the Bloodbreaker—supposedly able to turn a mere mortal into a demigod.
Playing into his plot within a city full of secrets, Bellanthe thought she’d do anything to take her life back. But when a curse threatens to destroy her, salvation may lie where she least expects it.
Featuring heart-stopping plot twists, addictive character dynamics, and a sizzling slow burn, this lush new fantasy is perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent & Rachel Gillig.
