Lyra Archeron had always been the sister who endured.
A marriage she never wanted. A husband who taught her obedience through fear. A life built around locked doors and carefully spoken words.
Then the Cauldron remakes her.
No longer human, and carrying a power even the Night Court does not understand, Lyra must learn what it means to make her own choices again.
And Azriel, the quiet Shadowsinger who seems determined to remain at her side, may be the first person who understands that loving her doesn't mean saving her.
It means waiting for her to choose him.
