“Kenyon’s writing is brisk, ironic, sexy, and relentlessly imaginative.” Boston Globe, praise for the author
Description
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon comes a supernatural historical thriller, perfect for fans of The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah.
When Maria Bertram is summoned to Czechoslovakia for a secret mission against the Allies, she has absolutely no idea what the Germans have planned, or what they’re up to. Her goal is to avenge her family that was brutally murdered by a Nazi SS officer. The last thing she expects is to meet a spy who is equally determined to stop the Wehrmacht as she is.
As part of an ancient society, Simon von Brunswick has a secret even deadlier than the one the Nazis are ready to use against their enemies. He’s been given one task: stop the Nazis before they unleash an evil that won’t just end the war, but end the world. His mission is to assassinate Maria and burn down the Höllenlandschaft they’re trying to build.
But war is never simple. In order to fulfill his mission and save the world, Simon risks losing not only his own life, but the life of the woman he has come to love more than the world he wants to save.
