Perfect for fans of Sabaa Tahir and Roseanne A. Brown this highly anticipated sequel to
Witches Steeped in Gold finds rival witches Jaz and Iraya in an alliance that hangs by a thread
with a brand-new enemy on the horizon. The Doyenne is dead and the throne is empty. Iraya her
revenge taken and magic unfettered turns her sights on a bigger goal: freeing Aiyca for the
Obeah. But first she must shed the guise of the rogue warrior and become the Lost Empress her
people need. Jazmyne's mother has been overthrown but her people aren't ready to call her
doyenne. She's no stranger to a fight though and she's prepared to go to extreme lengths?and
court ruthless danger?to secure her title. But a new threat is awakening?an enemy with vicious
intent and an army of nightmares from beyond the veil. An enemy who has waited a decade to
strike who would claim both Iraya's birth right and Jazmyne's bloody crown. Trust is scarce
and betrayal a breath away. And Iraya and Jazmine must once again turn to each other?after all
better the witch you know than the nightmare you don't. The war has just begun.
