When a king begs a dread boon, dare she refuse him? Remeya--fosterling and maid-in-waiting to the king's sister--worships the old and forbidden horned god alongside the princess. Despite the centuries-old taboo, a few believers still perform the rites in secret. And the king quietly tolerates their heresy until Remeya retrieves a cursed sword from its watery grave and bestows it upon him. As the king's mind unravels into violence, no one near him remains safe, not even his best beloved. Especially not his best beloved. Fearing for all their lives, Remeya frantically seeks a means of curbing the king's wrath. Appeals to religious authority and personal displays of public piety prove fruitless, while leaving salvation to her god delivers no sign that he will act. Unless Remeya learns to engage more deeply with her beliefs--beyond obedience, beyond devotion, and into surrender--the princess will lose her head and Remeya her soul.

Had she gone far enough?She paused, eyes adjusting.The glimmering ripples of the spring's source cast dim flickers against the rocks pressing her down.ABOUT THE AUTHOR J.M.
