The veins of an entire continent are bleeding out. Cities flicker into darkness. Magic turns volatile and deadly. If the Veins of Olukun die - Afrokan dies with them.
The Kondo send their best - a Guardian rune weaver, the god's Vessel - on a hunt for the one power that might save everything.
The catch? Her mission partner is Mangi. The man who shattered her, still devastatingly, infuriatingly present.
And at her other side: Konya. Loyal. Steady. The man who has protected her for years - who has been carrying a secret just as dangerous as any god they're hunting.
Magic is failing. Ancient gods are waking. The world is running out of time.
And the heart Asha swore she'd armoured? Wide open. Caught between the man who broke her and the one who never stopped holding the pieces.

Three Men in a Boat (Completed)
Three Men in a Boat, published in 1889, is a humorous account by English writer- Jerome K. Jerome of a two-week boating holiday on the Thames from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston. The book was initially intended to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history along the route, but the humorous elements took over to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages seem a distraction to the comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers - the jokes seem fresh and witty even today.Complete
