From the award-winning author of the Dreamland series comes a new dark
romantic fantasy about a young woman finding hope in her powers of
destruction.
The Thief Kingdom is a place hidden within the world of Aadilor. Many
whisper of its existence, but few have found this place, where magic and
pleasure abound. There, the mysterious Thief King reigns supreme with
the help of the Mousai, a trio of revered and feared sorceresses.
Larkyra Bassette may be the youngest of the Mousai, but when she sings
her voice has the power to slay monsters. When it's discovered the Duke
of Lachlan is siphoning a poisonous drug from the Thief Kingdom and
using it to abuse his tenants, Larkyra is offered her first solo mission
to stop the duke. Eager to prove herself, Larkyra accepts by posing as
the duke's potential bride. But her plans grow complicated when she
finds herself drawn to Lord Darius Mekenna, Lachlan's rightful heir.
Soon she suspects Darius has his own motivations for ridding Lachlan of
the corrupt duke. Larkyra and Darius must learn to trust each other if
there is to be any hope of saving the people of Lachlan--and themselves.
Welcome to the world of Aadilor, where lords and ladies can be murderers
and thieves, and the most alluring notes are often the deadliest. Dare
to listen?
