SAFT ALLISON A DARK AND DROWNING TIDE

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A sharp-tongued folklorist must pair up with her academic rival to solve
their mentor’s murder in this lush and enthralling sapphic fantasy romance from the New York
Times bestselling author of A Far Wilder Magic .    “Clever  emotional  and gorgeous—at its
core  this is a story about the healing capacity of love.”—Ava Reid  author of Juniper & Thorn
Lorelei Kaskel  a folklorist with a quick temper and an even quicker wit  is on an expedition
with six eccentric nobles in search of a fabled spring. The magical spring promises untold
power  which the king wants to harness in order to secure his reign over the embattled country
of Brunnestaad. Lorelei is determined to use this opportunity to prove herself and make her
wildest  most impossible dream come true: to become a naturalist  able to travel freely to
lands she’s only read about.   The expedition gets off to a harrowing start when its
leader—Lorelei’s beloved mentor—is murdered in her quarters aboard their ship. The suspects are
the five remaining expedition mates  each with their own motive. The only person Lorelei knows
must be innocent is her longtime academic rival  the insufferably gallant and maddeningly
beautiful Sylvia von Wolff. Now in charge of the expedition  Lorelei must find the spring
before the murderer strikes again—and a coup begins in earnest.  But there are other dangers
lurking in the dark: forests that rearrange themselves at night  rivers with slumbering dragons
hiding beneath the water  and shapeshifting beasts out for blood.  As Lorelei and Sylvia
grudgingly work together to uncover the truth—and resist their growing feelings for each
other—they discover that their leader had secrets of her own. Secrets that make Lorelei
question whether justice is worth pursuing  and if this kingdom is worth saving at all.
