Three years after marrying to secure a delicate alliance, Queen Asenna flees the palace in the dead of night, desperate to protect her newborn son from the whims of his cruel and fickle father. She learns to rely on strangers and new friends as she searches desperately for her people, whose mystical connection with the kingdom's giant wolves is the only thing her husband fears. Relentlessly pursued by the royal secret police, Asenna confronts her own humanity and destiny as she fights to protect her son, her family, and her home. 

In all his years of service, Captain Carro Morelake has never disobeyed an order from his King, but when he is sent to hunt down Asenna and her child, doubts begin to take root in his mind. As he haunts the queen’s footsteps through a vast and mysterious forest, Carro’s memories and instincts are pitted against his loyalties. When he is forced to make an agonizing decision which leaves him at the mercy of those he once hunted, Carro must pass the hardest test of all: learn to trust himself or pay the price.

Nearly five years after inheriting the Midwinter Crown, Fen finds himself struggling under the weight of living up to his mother’s celebrated legacy, his disaffection with court politics, and his own maddening personal life. But everything the young king believes about himself and his world begins to unravel one night when he is shaken from sleep by an earthquake that only he and Sage can feel. Suddenly, Fen and his family are thrust into a desperate fight to protect their kingdom, and each other, from two strangers with troubling abilities and mysterious motives.

In the race to untangle the strangers’ deadly intentions, they confront an ancient, enigmatic magic that runs far deeper than anyone imagined. Pulled far from home, Fen must ultimately decide what kind of son, brother, friend, and king he wants to be. When everything he has ever wanted is laid before him, will he pay the price to be free of his own self-doubt? Or will he stand against the shadows of his family’s past that threaten to destroy everything he holds dear?
