'The Tide Lords are returning and that means every man, woman and child is in danger ...' Arkady is exiled to the repressive Torlenian capital, where she makes some unexpected friends and some powerful enemies, all of whom seem bent on using her to wreak vengeance on each other. Things are not going smoothly for Declan Hawkes, the King's Spymaster, either, and not just because the Empress of the Five Realms has turned up in Caelum with her family. Jaxyn Aranville is determined to quash any opposition to his plans for the Glaeban throne and Arkady's husband, the Duke of Lebec, is in his way. And in the stark deserts of Torlenia, a meeting between two powerful Tide Lords could put to rest eight thousand years of enmity ... or not ... Praise for The Tide Lords 'vivid style and snappy dialogue ... a rollercoaster ride of mortal and immortal machinations' Nexus 'a beautifully woven story' Good Reading 'It is the uncovering of the truth, both by the reader and by the characters that makes this book such a pleasure to read' Infinitas
