Alanya, a young orphan, travels beyond the borders of her home to rescue a captive Queen and discovers a dark secret. Can she, a lone soldier, and a lizard save their dying world?

Queen Diem has a deadly secret-one that has already cost the lives of everyone she's ever loved. In a land long ruled by men, she must forge her own path as the first female ruler the kingdom of Domhan has seen in two centuries, a task that will be dangerous at best, and fatal at worst. If she is to survive, she must take a throne she's never wanted and enforce the bloody, semi-annual ritual of the Ivory Rite, a practice that keeps more than half of her people oppressed. Living as a prisoner in a castle made of ice and glass, she's plagued by dreams of Mam, the kind-eyed woman who raised her, and Colter, her childhood best friend. The responsibility of their deaths is almost too much to bear, until she meets a boy with familiar eyes and hair kissed by fire; a boy with a startling resemblance to someone long thought dead. The gift of a seemingly innocent trinket and an ominous prophecy will cause Diem to question everything she thought she knew.

As loyalties shatter and enemies rise, Kay must face the question that could cost her everything: when the world demands you choose a side, can love survive the blood between us?
