Description
For fans of Uprooted and For the Wolf comes a dark, richly gothic fantasy about a maiden who must unleash the monster within to save her kingdom, while the monster in her head is not the only threat lurking. Elspeth Spindle needs more than luck to stay safe in the eerie, mist-locked kingdom she calls home: she needs a monster. She calls him the Nightmare, an ancient, unpredictable spirit trapped in her head. He protects her and keeps her secrets, but magic always comes at a price. When Elspeth meets a mysterious highwayman on a forest road, her life takes a drastic turn. Drawn into a world of shadow and deception, she joins a dangerous quest to cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it. The highwayman is the King’s own nephew, Captain of the Destriers, and guilty of high treason. He and Elspeth have until Solstice to gather twelve Providence Cards, the keys to the cure. As the stakes rise and their undeniable attraction intensifies, Elspeth must confront her darkest secret: the Nightmare is slowly taking over her mind, and she may not be able to stop him.
