In the seven years she’s served the goddess Persephone, Ciara has been many things. A comforting shoulder, a voice of caution, a threatening whisper in the dark—whatever can charm Persephone’s allies and trick her enemies long enough to get the goddess what she wants. The only thing Ciara hasn’t been... is honest. But when she meets Mal Keyne, a fledgling agent of Hades in danger from her own temple, her usual tactics aren’t enough anymore. If she wants to save her new friend’s life, she’ll need to do the scariest thing the gods have ever asked of her. She’ll need to let someone in.

** I no longer use Goodreads to track my reading. My subjective rating and review standards aren’t likely to be useful to other readers—how would it help anyone else to see that I rated a book 5 stars because I read it at the exact right time in my life, or 2 stars because it used a popular trope I dislike?—and I’m not comfortable with the idea of readers and even authors taking them as objective measurements, or worse, constructive criticism. I now track my reading privately, but send out monthly book recommendations through my mailing list at https://www.zoecannon.com/newsletter. My old ratings and reviews are still here, but don’t take them as anything other than personal reactions. I may not see messages and friend requests. ** Zoe Cannon may or may not be a supervillain out to conquer the world through writing. When not writing, she can be found perfecting her schemes for world domination, plotting against her archenemies, and staying up too late reading a book. Her secret lair is rumored to be located somewhere in southern New Hampshire.
