Description
From the New York Times bestseller Harper L. Woods comes a brand new, highly anticipated novel in her Of Flesh & Bone series, What Sleeps Within the Cove.
Once, I bartered my soul for my mate.
Offering Mab my bound allegiance was the only way to save Caldris's life—the only bargain I could make to keep us both from the Void. After cruelly murdering the King of Summer, her own brother, Mab became unhinged, and there was no telling what she would do. Caldris is safe for now because of my sacrifice, but at a cost. Queen Mab only wants one thing from me.
Then, I was banished to Tartarus, from where few ever return.
Mab has demanded a tribute—a snake from the crown of Medusa. Navigating through the horrors of Tartarus, I must pass the Trials of the Five Rivers to prove my worth to the primordials and steal the unthinkable. All without my magic.
Now, I must embrace my darkness, my past.
To survive, I must discover who I am—who I'm fated to be. Human, and Fae, and something... other. Embracing all the sides of magic, light and dark, is the only way to escape Tartarus and get back to Caldris. I will save him, the Fae, and the humans from Mab.
Even if it kills me.
