About the book

The first in a sumptuous slow-burn romantasy duology from a stunning new voice

'Enchanting.' Katharine Corr, co-author of Daughter of Darkness

Deep in the desert, a storm is brewing.

Deep in the desert, under the blazing sun, an elite troupe of dancers are trained to harness their magic. They are the queen’s most formidable assassins. Aasira has one of the rarest talents – for she is a flame-wielder. Feared by all and envied by some, she uses her power to execute enemies of the crown.

Aasira’s greatest wish is to serve her queen. But on the eve of her graduation, with tensions rising among the dancers and secrets stirring in the shifting sand dunes, she begins to question whether she was truly born to kill…

‘A sweeping adventure of secrets, betrayals and alternate histories.’ Kendare Blake, author of Champion of Fate

‘Completely addictive. An absolute must read.’ Rosie Talbot, author of Sixteen Souls
