    "description": "Death wasn\u2019t the end, it was only the beginning\u2026\n\nSybella has always been the darkest of Death\u2019s daughters, trained at the convent of Saint Mortain to serve as his justice. But she has a new mission now. In a desperate bid to keep her two youngest sisters safe from the family that nearly destroyed them all, she agrees to accompany the duchess to France, where they quickly find themselves surrounded by enemies. Their one ray of hope is Sybella\u2019s fellow novitiates, disguised and hidden deep in the French court years ago by the convent\u2014provided Sybella can find them.\n\nGenevieve has been undercover for so many years, she struggles to remember who she is or what she\u2019s supposed to be fighting for. Her only solace is a hidden prisoner who appears all but forgotten by his guards. When tragedy strikes, she has no choice but to take matters into her own hands\u2014even if it means ignoring the long awaited orders from the convent.\n\nAs Sybella and Gen\u2019s paths draw ever closer, the fate of everything they hold sacred rests on a knife\u2019s edge. Will they find each other in time, or will their worlds collide, destroying everything they care about?",
