Narissa Chase has always believed in one thing: that she was a good person, that she was good. She was a protector, someone who defended people-didn't that automatically make her a good person?
But sometimes, didn't the protector need to be protected?
So when her best friend starts to drown, Narissa jumps after him with no question.
But what she encounters in the deep blue isn't icy currents, it's a whole city.
And her best friend had just been kidnapped by its queen.
In a panic, Narissa makes a challenge to the queen who'd kidnapped him: finish whatever task she had for her, and Narissa and her best friend could return to land, safely. Lest she fail, the two would be stuck in the Queen's cold hands for the rest of their lifespan.
But the challenge isn't what she'd signed up for, and now she's forced to be what she's believed she wasn't her whole life.
Cruel, Evil.
Bad.
