(Sequel to Mother of Wolves)
Vengeance is the only thing on Valyria Stark's mind when she returns to King's Landing. Her mother, best friend, twin brother and sister-in-law all died before her eyes. Although she is not entirely alone, she has lost everyone she was closest to, as well as her titles and power. She finds it hard to adapt - despite how strong she seems - so she desperately grabs whatever shred of power she can get.
When Valyria's bastard brother Jon Snow sends a raven requesting help up on the Wall, she immediately wants to leave to help him. The terms of letting her go is that she takes two trusted men with her. When her last two friends, Hunter Baratheon and Allister Ellwood agree to go, will she allow them to lay down their lives for this cause?
Can Valyria get past the events of the Red Wedding to save both herself and her friends? Will she get her titles back for her service to the Realm? Is Valyria still as powerful and influential as she once was, despite having no longer having her titles? What happens when a man who once tried to kill her demands that she joins him in his war for the Iron Throne, with the price of denial being death?
