Ailesse and her friends change the afterlife in the gripping
conclusion to the fantasy duology that began with Bone Crier's Moon from
New York Times bestselling author Kathryn Purdie--perfect for fans of
Stephanie Garber and Roshani Chokshi. Now available in paperback.
Love is a matter of life and death.
Bone Criers have been ferrying the dead into the afterlife for
centuries, a dangerous duty only possible with the powers they gain from
sacrificing their amourés, the men destined to love them and die. But
Bone Criers Ailesse and Sabine--along with Ailesse's love, Bastien--are
working to chart their own course and rewrite the rules of the
afterlife. If they don't break the soul bond between Ailesse and her
amouré, she could die--just as Bastien's father did.
Sabine struggles to maintain her authority as matrone of her
famille--the role always destined for her sister--even as she fights
to control the violent jackal power within her.
Bastien is faced with a new dilemma as the spirits of the Underworld
threaten the souls of his friends--and his father.
Ailesse attempts to resist her mother's siren song as she's drawn
into her own version of the Underworld. How will she save her friends
once she's cut off from their world?
This pulse-pounding follow-up to Bone Crier's Moon is a story of love,
sisterhood, and determination as three friends find the courage and
power to shatter the boundary between the living and the dead.
