Description
In a world divided by blood, the common Reds serve the Silver elite, whose supernatural abilities make them gods among mortals. Mare Barrow and her family are Reds, scraping by through theft in a poor, rural village, destined to serve. But when her best friend is conscripted into the army, Mare gambles everything to win his freedom.
A twist of fate pulls Mare into the heart of the Silver court. Before the king, princes, and all the nobles, she discovers an impossible power within herself—a power that defies the very blood that defines her world.
To hide this anomaly, the king forces Mare into the role of a lost Silver princess and betroths her to one of his sons. As she is drawn deeper into the dangerous intrigue of the palace, Mare risks her new position to aid the Scarlet Guard, the leaders of a burgeoning Red rebellion. Yet, caught between loyalty and desire, she finds herself playing a deadly game, pitting prince against prince, and her own heart against her choices. In this lush, vivid fantasy, the only certainty is betrayal.
