Dihya never wanted to follow her mother into politics, but now she has two impossible choices: watch her country fall apart, or marry a prince she’s never met. Accepting Prince Ralin’s offer might help her tribe but it means traveling to Irre, where a staggering myth has come to life: the Irrean Princess Atira has been favored by a god. With her powers growing stronger by the day and a fanatical, charismatic priest encouraging her, Atira is making plans that could throw both Dihya’s homeland and Irre into chaos—and Dihya is caught in the middle. As Dihya struggles to navigate the intricacies and betrayals of the Irrean court, she learns that everyone, even her mysterious prince, has their own dangerous motives. Trapped in a hostile country with the fate of two nations in her hands, Dihya must find a way to protect her people or risk losing not just her home, but herself.
