From bestselling author Rachel Gillig comes the highly anticipated sequel to The Knight and the Moth, a dark and enchanting gothic fantasy filled with dangerous secrets, forbidden magic, and unforgettable romance.

Aisling Cathedral lies in ruins, Sybil Delling's closest allies are believed dead, and the ruthless King Benji has claimed her as his bride. Held captive and drugged, Sybil refuses to surrender, determined to bring down the king and free the kingdom of Traum from his control.

As Benji organises a series of tournaments to celebrate their union and strengthen his rule, a mysterious knight emerges from the competition. With no name and no memory of his past, he may be Sybil's only hope of escaping captivity and destroying the king's power.

But in a kingdom where history seems destined to repeat itself, Sybil discovers that defeating a tyrant may require more than rebellion. To break the hold of faith and fear over Traum, she may first have to save the very kingdom she hopes to change.

Rich in gothic atmosphere, dark fairy-tale magic, political intrigue, and sweeping romance, this captivating sequel raises the stakes in Rachel Gillig's spellbinding fantasy world.
