Over two years have passed since Freya entered the Midnight City and alongside her new family of misfits joined its citizens. But life of a soldier quickly whisked her far beyond the city's borders and those she loves the most. Now the time has come to return to the Winterlands capital and help protect the city during the Royal Trials. At the same time, the merciless waters of the Northern seas keep bringing unknown visitors to the Winterlands' shores. In the mighty shadow of an arena where trials take place, stuck in a web of secrets as well as carefully crafted lies of her own making, Freya must face yet another choice being taken from her, another change to the life she carved in blood for herself. And all that while the long forgotten past conveniently comes knocking... Disclaimer: This is a second book in a trilogy. In order to understand the story, please make sure to read 'Children of Night and Snow' first.

"Warrior, Fallen Princess, Survivor. A war looms and she must fight not only for her kingdom but for her very soul" After years of exile Khali Virella the dark princess once bound by duty and blood, is summoned back to her homeland Vallisk. Whispers of war spread like wildfire, beasts of shadow and bone creep across the land, and an ancient enemy long thought vanquished stirs once more. Khali has no intention of bending to her family's will, not when grief still consumes her but duty binds her to a grim task: training the next generation of rulers to fight. However, her most difficult task is to work alongside Elias Rurik. Their past is steeped in blood, and his presence ignites a storm of fury within her. With kingdoms on the edge of destruction, Khali discovers something far worse than ancient horrors-a truth that threatens to break the chains she has formed around her heart. Khali must navigate a court of vipers, uncover the truth about her past. But as darkness rises, one truth becomes clear: the greatest threat is not the creatures of the past, but the secrets buried within her heart.
