Desperate to escape the ghosts of her past, Alara boards a ship she believes will carry her towards freedom. Instead, she finds herself face to face with Captain Corvane-a man whispered about in ports and taverns as both legend and curse. His presence commands storms, his gaze sees through lies, and his ship sails on waters rumoured to swallow souls whole.
Trapped aboard his vessel, Alara is thrust into a world of shadowed loyalties, forbidden secrets, and a destiny she never sought. The deeper she sails into Corvane's world, the more she begins to question whether she's run from her past... or straight into it.
In a tale of salt and storm, where fate is as treacherous as the sea itself, Alara must decide whether to defy the captain who holds her fate-or join him on a voyage that could claim her heart... or her life.
