Once upon a time, the huntsman loved the queen, until she betrayed him and the entire kingdom of Revaria.
Rumors of Queen Emery's power had become legend. The wicked queen cursed those who bore the Inkling and enslaved their animus. But there is more to her story than the ever-changing whispers flowing through the villages.
Overthrown and banished by her daughter, the queen surrenders at the mercy of her huntsman, Rowan...the man she once loved. Seeking shelter in the sacred village of his ancestors, Rowan unravels the complicated past he shares with Emery in an effort to redeem not only himself but the fallen queen.
But when Emery vanishes, her loyal huntsman must sacrifice everything to save her...if she can be saved. Can the wicked truly find redemption?
