Fans of For the Throne and Vespertine will love this dark fairy-tale retelling of the Irish fable of 'The Snow, The Crow, and the Blood, ' about a desperate young queen who makes an unholy alliance with the dread lord of death himself in order to protect the one she loves, even if it means damning herself.
Riona Ó Conchúir has known death her whole life. The mysterious lord of death has tormented her for years, stealing away the souls of all those she has loved since childhood, demanding that she come and serve him in his shadowy realm, but she has always resisted - until now.
When her daughter falls ill with an incurable disease, Riona at last answers the lord of death's call and ventures into the hidden realm of the sídhe to offer herself as a servant to him in exchange for her daughter's life. But when he demands that she use the divine magic of her blood to find three legendary objects of power that were once wielded by the gone gods themselves, Riona soon realizes that she will be forced to make an impossible choice:
Her daughter's life, or the realm of Éire itself.
