By Kiersten White
The second novel in the And I Darken series.
A sister filled with rage. Lada Dracul has no allies and no crown. All she has is what she has always had: herself. After failing to secure the Wallachian throne, she is out to punish anyone who dares cross her, storming the countryside with her men — but brute force is not getting her what she wants, and thinking of Mehmed, the defiant Ottoman sultan, brings little comfort to her thorny heart.
Her brother caught in the crosshairs. Lada needs the support of her diplomatic younger brother Radu, but Mehmed has sent him to Constantinople, and it is no diplomatic mission: Mehmed wants control of the city, and Radu has earned an unwanted place as a double-crossing spy behind enemy lines. For the first time in his life, when Lada asks him for help, he refuses — leading his sister to make the darkest of choices.
Torn between loyalties to faith, to the Ottomans and to Mehmed, Radu knows he owes Lada nothing. If she dies he could never forgive himself, but if he fails in Constantinople, would Mehmed ever forgive him? As nations fall around them, the Dracul siblings must decide what they will sacrifice to fulfil their destinies.
