About the Book

New York Times best-selling author Juliette Cross delves back into her dark Gothic world of
Northgall for the final book in the trilogy.

An ancient evil has been sleeping deep in the mountains beneath the shadow fae city, Gadlizel.
Now it is wide awake, and the fate of the fae world rests on Prince Torvyn’s shoulders. For his
father, the king, is possessed, and the dark one is infecting his people while feeding upon the
blood of innocents. His only hope is a moon fae witch who lives in a mystical forest near the
Borderlands.

Aelwyn has been hunted most of her life, abducted by those who would use her powers, and
escaped burning at the stake…twice. She isn’t surprised, nor unprepared, when Prince Torvyn
stumbles into her woodland home, demanding her help. Rather than hex him and send him on
his way, she is convinced by both her magick and her conscience that she must go with him and
find the dark one spreading death across the fae world.

When Aelwyn arrives in the opulent city of Gadlizel, she discovers far more than she bargained
for. Now, not only is Aelwyn’s guarded heart at stake, but so is her life. While Prince Torvyn
battles the royal court and his own father to protect her, he cannot fight a centuries-old evil
that targets Aelwyn for his blood bride. And we all know that love cannot conquer death…can
it?
