Kushiels Legacy series book 09
Returning to Terre d'Ange, Moirin finds the royal family broken. Wracked
by unrelenting grief at the loss of his wife, Queen Jehanne, King Daniel
is unable to rule. Prince Thierry, leading an expedition to explore the
deadly jungles of Terra Nova, is halfway across the world. And three year
old Desiree is a vision of her mother: tempestuous, intelligent, and fiery,
but desperately lonely, and a vulnerable pawn in a game of shifting
political allegiances.
As tensions mount, King Daniel asks that Moirin become Desiree's oath-sworn
protector. Navigating the intricate political landscape of the Court proves
a difficult challenge, and when dire news arrives from overseas, the spirit
of Queen Jehanne visits Moirin in a dream and bids her undertake an
impossible quest.
Another specter from the past also haunts Moirin. Travelling with Thierry
in the New World is Raphael de Mereliot, her manipulative former lover.
Years ago, Raphael forced her to help him summon fallen angels in the hopes
of acquiring mystical gifts and knowledge. It was a disastrous effort that
nearly killed them, and Moirin must finally bear the costs of those bitter
mistakes.
