She wanted freedom. She got war.

The explosive fourth book in the Rishi's Wish series, a dark urban fantasy for fans of Kim Harrison who crave high-stakes action and heroines who refuse to be saved.

Dee thought knowing the truth would set her free. Instead, it's trapped her deeper than ever.

Her eyes are open. Her demons are conquered. It's finally time to start living. But Dee doesn't see as much as she thinks—and her blindness will cost everyone she loves.

When she leaves Hamal and her army behind, they're forced straight into a trap designed for her. Hamal bluffs his way through war, desperate to protect his charge. But the only way out is to spring the trap. And when Dee reemerges, ready for battle, not even Hamal can stop her from the path she's chosen.

Her decisions will demand a price higher than anything she's paid before.

Every ally becomes vulnerable. Every step leads closer to death. In the aftermath of her choices, Dee must dig deeper than ever to survive. Despite her immense power, one question haunts her: Was she born to die?

When freedom costs everything, will she become the villain—or the hero she was meant to be?
