The magic is broken. Cam is trapped between the need to secure his throne, his commitment to support King Gareth as he resists a massive invasion, and the renewed threat from the magic he fought to protect. Nature itself is being torn apart as two rival magics wrestle for control. Underneath it all, something very old and very powerful rouses from its lethargy. It hunts for Cam—even as the magic called the Anarwyn grows ever more reckless in its efforts to neutralize him.

Elizabeth Farr never wanted to return to America. During her family’s vacation abroad, she has fallen in love with England, and is despondent when her father refuses to let her stay. Returning to New York means having her debut into society, and that means a swiftly arranged marriage. Elizabeth will never go to college, never learn to be a reporter - as she sees it, her life is over as soon as the Titanic reaches port. Of course, if she’s unlucky, her life will be over far sooner than that.
