โA dark, delectable, and utterly unique series that readers will want to drown in.โ โLaura Sebastian,ย New York Timesย bestselling author of the Ash Princess series
The start of a fierce fantasy duology about three maidens who are chosen for their land's greatest honor...and one girl determined to save her sister from the grave.ย
In the walled city-state of Alu, Kammani wants nothing more than to become the accomplished healer her father used to be before her family was cast out of their privileged life in shame.ย
When Alu's ruler falls deathly ill, Kammaniโs beautiful little sister, Nanaea, is chosen as one of three sacred maidens to join him in the afterlife. Itโs an honor. A tradition. And Nanaea believes it is her chance to live an even grander life than the one that was stolen from her.
But Kammani sees the selection for what it really isโa death sentence.
Desperate to save her sister, Kammani schemes her way into the palace to heal the ruler. There she discovers more danger lurking in the sand-stone corridors than she could have ever imagined and that her own lifeโand heartโare at stake. But Kammani will stop at nothing to dig up the palaceโs buried secrets even if it means sacrificing everythingโฆincluding herself.
