Description

From the author of House of Salt and Sorrows comes the breathtaking fairy tale retelling readers have been waiting for

When death calls, she must answer.

Hazel Trepas has always known she was different from her siblings. A thirteenth child, she was promised to one of the gods at birth - Merrick, the god of death.

When he finally arrives, Hazel learns the art - and magic - of healing. Word of her extraordinary gift to know the cure for every ailment spreads throughout the kingdom. But all gifts come with a price. When Death claims a soul for himself, it is Hazel who must end their suffering... permanently.

Soon, destiny brings her to the royal court where she meets Leopold, an infuriatingly alluring prince with a disdain for everything and everyone. Here, Hazel faces her biggest dilemma yet: to carry out her duties or follow the urges of her own heart. Can she go against the will of Death himself to save someone who is marked to die?

'A candle-lit journey of love, sacrifice and becoming.' Kiyash Monsef, bestselling author of Once There Was

'A haunting, deeply romantic tale of life and death, and one girl who walks the fragile cord between them.' Ava Reid, bestselling author of A Study in Drowning

Reviews

'Utterly enchanting. There are few greater pleasures than setting off with Craig's clever heroines through glittering Gothic realms.' Kirsten Miller, author of The Change, a Good Morning America Book Club pick


'I think I speak for everyone when I say we want Erin A. Craig to tell us bedtime stories every night. Until that happens, at least we can lose ourselves in the darkly wondrous fairytale romance of Hazel and her deathly godfather.' Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of the And I Darken series


'Sinister and beautiful, this dark fairytale swept me away to a decadent world of capricious gods and gold-limned danger.' Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge


'Erin Craig at her very best, bestowing readers with a compelling heroine, ruthless gods, and forbidden romance. Beating fiercely within its gilded cage, the dark heart of this brilliant and sinister reimagining will haunt you long after you close its pages.' Mara Rutherford, author of A Multitude of Dreams


'Death and life interweave in this lush, glittering fairytale, showing us that they maybe aren't so opposed... A masterful story that suspends time - and makes us think about how valuable it is.' Autumn Krause, author of Before the Devil Knows You're Here

Absolutely Fantastic

This was my first time ordering from SciFier but it definitely won't be my last. When it comes to buying books online the packaging needs to be good, SciFier were great they used bubble wrap to make sure they arrived perfect. Amazing range of books that majority are lower priced than most book retailers. Wonderful service, I'll definitely be recommending to everyone. Thank you.

Great as always

Same old, same old. Amazing experience, great packaging, shipping was faster since it was a bit smaller and check out was smooth as butter. I have now put myself on a buy allowance because I cannot be trusted lol.
