| Summary: | On an island where the dead once walked, seven noble houses fell to a conqueror's blade, their necromancy lost. Only the House of Teeth survives: heiress Marozia and her silent cousin Agnes, keeper of dark secrets. To reclaim their magic and avenge their family, Agnes must betray her heart - but love may doom them all. Once there was an island where the dead walked the earth, and seven noble houses ruled using the arcane secrets of necromancy. A conqueror's blade brought them low, burning their libraries, killing their lords, and extinguishing their eldritch magic. But defiant against the new order stands the House of Teeth. Its last living members are the beautiful Marozia, the heiress to the House, and her cousin, the uncanny Lady Agnes. Though she has not spoken a word in seven years, Agnes is the true carrier of the House's legacy. And she has her orders. She must recapture the secrets of death magic and avenge her family's fallen honor. She must arrange the betrothal of her beloved cousin Marozia to Liuprand, heir to the conqueror's throne, to gain access to the forbidden library in his grotesquely grand castle. Revenge burns in Agnes's heart but so do stranger passions -- and it is Liuprand, the golden prince, who speaks to her soul. This passion is as treasonous as it is powerful, poisoning the kingdom's roots and threatening to tear the already shattered realm in two. For Agnes's final order is the gravest: She must not fall in love. -- |
