The third installment in an epic romantic fantasy series based on Persian folklore, by the bestselling author of the Shatter Me series, A Very Large Expanse of Sea, and An Emotion of Great Delight.
Picking up at the explosive cliff-hanger ending of These Infinite Threads, Alizeh, the heir to the Jinn throne, has been stolen away to the neighboring kingdom of Tulan by Cyrus, its mercurial ruler. He plans to marry her there, giving her everything she needs to become the Jinn queen. Only then will he be able to fulfill his own bargain with the devil.
Alizeh is determined to escape, until she realizes that Cyrus´s plan may be the key to fulfilling her own destiny—and that she may actually have begun to trust him.
Back in Ardunia, Kamran has been trying to pick up the pieces after his grandfather´s murder, only to find out that the palace advisers have betrayed him. He seizes upon a mysterious parcel, left to him by his grandfather, that holds a magical way for Kamran to finally get to Tulan to find Alizeh. And along the way he finds an unlikely trio of supporters to aid him in his journey.
