‘Devastating and delicious’ Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author of The Cruel Prince
Returning to the dark and glamorous 19th century world of her New York Times bestseller, The Gilded Wolves, Roshani Chokshi dazzles us with another riveting tale full of mystery, danger, and romance.
Séverin and his team members might have successfully thwarted the Fallen House, but victory came at a terrible cost – one that still haunts all of them. Desperate to make amends, Séverin pursues a dangerous lead to find a long-lost artefact rumoured to grant its possessor the power of God.
Their hunt lures them far from Paris and into the icy heart of Russia, where crystalline ice animals stalk forgotten mansions, broken goddesses carry deadly secrets, and a string of unsolved murders makes the crew question whether an ancient myth is a myth after all.
As hidden secrets come to light and the ghosts of the past catch up to them, the crew will discover new dimensions of themselves. But what they find out may lead them down paths they never imagined.
