I love the magic Lucier weaves through this dark yet hopeful tale. I devoured it in one sitting! Kristin Cashore, author of the New York Times bestselling Graceling Realm books
"A beautifully crafted novel containing everything I love in an epic fantasy: complex characters and relationships, excellent world building, and a compelling story full of twists and turns." Juliet Marillier, author of the Blackthorn & Grim and Warrior Bards series
A rich and captivating YA standalone fantasy that's perfect for fans of Brigid Kemmerer, Rachel Hartman, and Naomi Novik, from the writer whose stories have been called brilliant (Booklist), masterful (Horn Book), and breathtaking (School Library Journal). In the aftermath of a devastating plague, a young lord is determined to discover the truth behind a mysterious attempt to assassinate the young queen.
A Sickness to kill them. A Princess to save them. And a Reaper who will stop at nothing to reveal the truth.
Young Lord Cassia was destined for death, kidnapped and imprisoned by the enemy three years ago. Now he has escaped, the sole survivor of a deadly outbreak that has ravaged the kingdoms of Oliveras and Brisa alike. His survival has won him his freedom, at a cost: Cas is now haunted by the souls of those with unfinished business left in the realm.
When Cas finally returns to his home in the mountains, he arrives just in time to celebrate the king and queen's newborn son. But when an assassin interrupts the festivities, Cas finds himself thrust into the dark underpinnings of court life. Nothing is as he remembers, and his only solace is Lena, a royal historian with a penchant for stealing his horse and keeping him anchored to the present...even as the past rises to the surface.
For the more Cas learns about the new queen-a former princess of Brisa, an old enemy-the more he is certain she harbors secrets. Secrets that threaten the one person Cas holds most dear.
Lucky for him, the past never forgets, and the secrets of the dead aren't always buried with them.
- Aftermath of a Plague: Cas survived imprisonment and a kingdom-destroying plague. Now he's returned home to a court he no longer recognizes and secrets that refuse to stay buried.
- Fantasy Mystery: When an assassin targets the infant prince, Cas is the only one suspicious of the beautiful new queenan enemy princess with secrets of her own.
- Slow Burn Romance: His only anchor is Lena, a sharp-witted royal historian who's more interested in stealing his horse than his heart... at first.
- Standalone Fantasy: A rich, complete story perfect for readers who love epic stakes, immersive world-building, and a satisfying conclusion in a single volume.

Nothing is what it seems
Cas returns to his home after three long years, the plague had changed many things he once knew. Because of this he worries about his brothers whereabouts. When he arrives at said home he is stunned to see the members of the royal court esecially his king and queen. And with that there are some unforseen suprises. This book contains everything I love: action, mystery and a teeny tiny lovestory all in a fantasy setting with a medieval character and a male protagonist (which has become pretty rare). The plot is quite easy to follow, but not predictable and it never gets boring. It's about coming home, healing and the chance caused through catastrohies. Such a great book that deserves far more attention.
