âYour land is not the one you take; it is the one you die for.â
Keera has tried to keep her final promise to Brenna, the partner she was forced to kill to save a kingdomâbut that promise has led to the most difficult struggles of her life. Sheâs been at war with her worst self while battling King Damien for the freedom of the Halflings, and sheâs lost too many along the way. But when she finally breaks the last seal, unleashing the Fae magic thatâs been hidden away for hundreds of years, the conflict seems to be turning in the Halflingsâ favor.
Meanwhile, Keeraâs discovery of a staggering secret about her lover and the kidnapping of one of her closest allies threatens to tip her back into darkness, but she has no time to rest. Opening the kingdomâs magical seals has transformed Keera in ways even the wisest Fae elders could not have anticipated, and the return of an evil thought long vanquished throws their rescue plans into chaos. And with the kingdomâs Halfling population suddenly posing a risk to the crown, the land is plunged into violence as the king begins a new blood purge. Keera and her allies must gather an army to meet Damienâs forces in a final confrontation of epicâand tragicâproportions.
