DESTINY DOESN'T CHASE. IT HUNTS. Heir to Hell and the dark forest of Malum, Klara is summoned to claim a throne she never wanted... and marked for death when she refuses. She is hunted by her own guardians - the Three Queens of Malum - and her childhood sweetheart, now a Commander in Lucifer's army. With her home now a prison, she flees to Kalos, a Fae haven untouched by dark magic. But nothing is ever what it seems here... To survive the perilous journey, she'll have to trust the most unlikely of allies: a smuggling leprechaun, a charming demon, a dead warlock, and lycaon siblings who lie as easily as they breathe. In the Realm, trust is not earned. It's traded. And every bargain leaves a mark.
