“An enchanting tale grounded by compelling protagonists, Blackthorn and Grim, who rise above adversity to become a formidable team.”-Jacqueline Carey, New York Times bestselling author of Poison Fruit To save Oran from his treacherous nuptials, Blackthorn and Grim will need all their resources: courage, ingenuity, leaps of deduction, and more than a little magic. Word has spread that Blackthorn possesses a remarkable gift for solving knotty problems, so the prince asks her for help. With the strategic marriage imminent, Oran sees no way out of his dilemma. For although his intended exactly resembles her portrait, her brutality upon arrival proves she is nothing like the sensitive woman of the letters. He knows her only from a portrait and sweetly poetic correspondence that have convinced him Flidais is his destined true love. Oran, crown prince of Dalriada, has waited anxiously for the arrival of his future bride, Lady Flidais. There she’ll live on the fringe of a mysterious forest, duty bound for seven years to assist anyone who asks for her help. Followed by a former prison mate, a silent hulk of a man named Grim, she travels north to Dalriada. In exchange for help escaping her long and wrongful imprisonment, embittered magical healer Blackthorn has vowed to set aside her bid for vengeance against the man who destroyed all that she once held dear. Now she presents the first novel in an enchanting series that will transport readers to a magical vision of ancient Ireland. Award-winning author Juliet Marillier “weaves magic, mythology, and folklore into every sentence on the page” (The Book Smugglers).
