**The highly anticipated, mind-blowing New York Times bestselling
sequel to Kiersten White's New York Times bestseller, AND I
DARKEN--the series that reads like HBO's Game of Thrones . . . if it
were set in the Ottoman Empire. *
A SISTER FILLED WITH RAGE
Lada Dracul has no allies. No crown. All she has is what she's always
had: herself. After failing to secure the Wallachian throne, Lada is out
to punish anyone who dares cross her. She storms the countryside with
her men, but brute force isn't getting Lada what she wants. And thinking
of Mehmed, the defiant Ottoman sultan, brings little comfort to her
thorny heart. There's no time to wonder whether he still thinks about
her, even loves her. She left him before he could leave her.
HER BROTHER CAUGHT IN THE CROSSHAIRS
Lada needs the support of her diplomatic younger brother, Radu. But
Mehmed has sent him to Constantinople--and it's no diplomatic mission.
Mehmed wants control of the city, and Radu has earned an unwanted place
as a double-crossing spy behind enemy lines. And for the first time in
his life, when Lada asks him for help, he refuses . . . leading his
sister to make the darkest of choices.
THE ULTIMATE POWER PLAY
Torn between loyalties to faith, to the Ottomans, and to Mehmed, Radu
knows he owes Lada nothing. If she dies, he could never forgive
himself--but if he fails in Constantinople, would Mehmed ever forgive
him?
As nations fall around them, the Dracul siblings must decide: what will
they sacrifice to fulfill their destinies? Empires will topple, thrones
will be won . . . and souls will be lost.
