Surrounded by enemies, she has never been farther from her crown—or closer to death. Betrayed in ways she couldn't have imagined, she'll do whatever it takes to find her way back to Lorian before his fury lays waste to the continent.

Alliances crumble and enemies unite as Regner's spiders creep ever closer. With only one chance to prevent him from attaining god-like powers and enslaving every human, fae, and hybrid across the four kingdoms, time is running out.

The human king believes she's trapped, yearning for death, waiting for Lorian to save her. But Regner hasn't realized that she'll stop at nothing to free her people—and he's the one who should be afraid.

In a world where betrayal lurks around every corner and the stakes have never been higher, will she reclaim her crown and prevent catastrophe, or will darkness engulf the realms?
