"A steamy game of cat and mouse between witch and witch-hunter, played out against a backdrop of opulence, secrets, and bloody history. I couldn't look away." - Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Champion of Fate
On the night Rune's life changed forever, blood ran in the streets. Now, in the aftermath of a devastating revolution, witches have been diminished from powerful rulers to outcasts ruthlessly hunted due to their waning magic, and Rune must hide what she is.

I really loved this book. From the moment I started it, I was immersed into this lush fantasy world that takes place in times of witch trials and huntings. The two main characters really hated each other, and everything built up so perfectly. There was action, betrayal, love, agony, passion, hatred, and more, all wrapped up into this beautiful book. I loved following Rune and Alex and Gideon. The magic system was one that I had never seen before, and it was really refreshing to experience.
