When Laila, a Muslim astronomy student in Kashmir, accidentally summons a cosmic jinn known as the Star-Eater, she binds him through a temporary marriage contract to save her world. Now, pretending to be husband and wife in her conservative community, they must break the bond before it becomes permanent-except neither wants to anymore. But her family is arranging her marriage to a cousin who hunts jinn, her father's past hides a devastating bargain, and Laila is slowly transforming into the very thing her star-eating husband must consume to survive.
A fusion of Islamic cosmology, Kashmiri culture, and star-crossed love, for fans of The City of Brass and The Night Circus.
