Book Description
In this lush, romantic epic fantasy series from a New York Times bestselling author, a young woman’s secret power to raise the dead plunges her into the dangerous and glamorous world of the Sainted King’s royal court. When Lore was thirteen, she escaped a cult in the catacombs beneath the city of Dellaire. And in the ten years since, she’s lived by one rule: don’t let them find you. Easier said than done, when her death magic ties her to the city. Mortem, the magic born from death, is a high-priced and illicit commodity in Dellaire, and Lore’s job running poisons keeps her in food, shelter, and relative security. But when a run goes wrong and Lore’s power is revealed, she’s taken by the Presque Mort, a group of warrior-monks sanctioned to use Mortem working for the Sainted King. Lore fully expects a pyre, but King August has a different plan. Entire villages on the outskirts of the country have been dying overnight, seemingly at random. Lore can either use her magic to find out what’s happening and who in the King’s court is responsible, or die. Lore is thrust into the Sainted King’s glittering court, where no one can be believed and even fewer can be trusted. Guarded by Gabriel, a duke-turned-monk, and continually running up against Bastian, August’s ne'er-do-well heir, Lore tangles in politics, religion, and forbidden romance as she attempts to navigate a debauched and opulent society. But the life she left behind in the catacombs is catching up with her. And even as Lore makes her way through the Sainted court above, they might be drawing closer than she thinks.

Book Description
Un royaume décadent inspiré d'une cour de Versailles gothique. Une nécromancienne traquée dissimulant une magie des morts interdite. Un prince et un prêtre-guerrier ennemis prêts à tout pour servir leur cause. Bienvenue à la cour de la Citadelle... À treize ans, Lore a échappé aux griffes d'un culte secret officiant dans les catacombes de la ville de Dellaire. Depuis dix ans, elle suit une unique règle : ne pas se laisser reprendre. Devenue trafiquante de poison pour le cartel qui l'a prise sous son aile, elle s'efforce de rester dans l'ombre et de garder le secret sur son affinité illicite avec la Mortem, la magie de la mort qui la lie irrémédiablement à la cité. Mais lorsqu'une transaction se passe mal, Lore est capturée par la Presque Mort, une faction de prêtres-guerriers habilités à utiliser la Mortem pour le compte du Roi Sanctifié... Lore pense être promise au bûcher, or le roi semble avoir d'autres intentions. Des villages entiers sont en train de disparaître aux confins du royaume sans explication rationnelle, et Lore est confrontée à un choix : user de sa magie pour enquêter et démasquer les responsables à la cour de la Citadelle... ou être exécutée. Mais dans cet étincelant monde d'en haut fait de lumière et de faux-semblants où elle ne peut accorder sa confiance à personne, Lore doit se trouver des alliés. Entre Gabriel, le duc devenu prêtre de la Presque Mort chargé de la guider et Bastian, le sulfureux et controversé prince héritier, Lore se perd dans un dangereux labyrinthe d'intrigues politiques, religieuses et amoureuses... alors que les sombres secrets qu'elle a laissés dans les profondeurs des catacombes sont en passe de la rattraper. « Magnifiquement écrit, d'une royale opulence et mystérieux à souhait. Hannah Whitten a construit un monde aussi sombre que fascinant, romantique et provocant. Si vous aimez les found families, les intrigues de cour, les secrets puissants, les prêtres sexy et les héroïnes fortes, le tout saupoudré d'une pincée (ou un peu plus) de nécromancie, ceci est le roman de vos rêves - et de vos cauchemars. » Ali Hazelwood, The Love Hypothesis « Un récit de Fantasy exquis. Mortel, inquiétant, et si attirant qu'on ne peut lâcher le joyau noir qu'est ce livre. » Stephanie Garber, Caraval « Ma nouvelle obsession. Un mélange parfait d'intrigues, de magie et d'amours interdites, servi par une écriture délicate et attirante tels les pétales d'une fleur vénéneuse. » Jodi Picoult, Mille petits riens « Sombre et luxuriant, délicieusement dangereux, ce livre vous enveloppe dans du velours tout en vous plaquant un couteau sur la gorge. » Ava Reid, A Study in Drowning « Je suis obsédée par cette histoire ! Hannah Whitten est définitivement une autrice à suivre. » Katee Robert, Neon Gods (Dark Olympus) « Une histoire décadente et mortelle, débordant de romance, d'intrigues et de magie corrompue. La prose de Whitten et ses personnages complexes et charismatiques captivent jusqu'à la dernière page. » C.L. Herman, All Of Us Villains

As the only Second Daughter born in centuries, Red has one purpose - to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in order to save her kingdom. Red is almost relieved to go. Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control, at least she knows that in the Wilderwood, she can't hurt those she loves. Again. But the legends lie. The Wolf is a man, not a monster.
