The second heart-pounding Greek-myth-inspired romantasy from the author of Threads That Bind, perfect for fans of Alexandra Bracken's Lore, Leigh Bardugo's Six of Crows and Chloe Gong's These Violent Delights. It's been five weeks since Io, descendant of the Fates, left the city of Alante to follow the golden threads in search of the god on the other end. Her investigation takes a turn for the worse when her only lead vanishes, but not before she gathers some crucial clues. Now Io has a new mystery to solve - sibling disappearances across the Wastelands that seem to be connected to the murders in Alante. And all signs point to Nanzy, the Golden City, as the centre of the conspiracy. As Io journeys to Nanzy, she makes powerful enemies, finds allies and uncovers a horrifying plot that traces back centuries. The more she learns, the more she suspects that the future of the world rests on her shoulders. But how much of the future is Io's choice, and how much is simply her fate...? 'Dripping with atmosphere and edged with danger, Threads That Bind weaves together a gorgeous dark tapestry of mystery, fated romance and modern myth. You won't be able to put this one down' Alexandra Bracken, bestselling author of Lore

Dripping with atmosphere and edged with danger, this novel weaves a dark tapestry of mystery, fated romance, and modern myth. In the city of Alante, descendants of Greek gods coexist with mortals. Io, the youngest of three sisters descended from the Fates, possesses the ability to see shimmering silver threads connecting every person. These threads signify relationships and life, severing when a person is destined to die. As a private investigator, Io navigates a world that views her kind with suspicion. Her life takes a turn when she witnesses a murder and realizes the killer’s life-thread is cut, indicating they should be dead. Complicating matters further, Edei, a member of the violent Rossi mob, is another witness. Io sees a bright silver fate-thread linking them, suggesting he is her destiny. Together, they must unravel the mystery while Io confronts the dark secrets of Alante. Faced with growing feelings for Edei, she must choose between embracing her fate or severing the thread to set him free. Filled with mystery, betrayal, and simmering romance, this electrifying debut is ideal for fans of popular contemporary fantasy authors.

From the bestselling author of Threads that Bind and Hearts that Cut comes a brand-new compulsive romantasy about a girl obsessed with the dark and the shadowy magical prince she falls in love with, perfect for fans of Holly Black and Laini Taylor. The dark has come alive . . . Six years ago, vicious creatures began to crawl out of the dark crevices of the world, and with it Sascia's fascination with the darkness was born. Now eighteen, that fascination has become an obsession, and while exploring an area known for its connection to the Darkworld, Sascia sees a person climb out of the darkness. But Nugau is no ordinary person, they're a genderfluid elf prince with one mission . . . to kill Sascia. Except, the second time they meet, Nugau is younger and doesn't recognise Sascia. And the third time, Nugau stumbles out of the darkness with poison running through their veins, expressing their undying love for her. Piecing together the puzzle, Sascia makes two shocking discoveries: the timelines of her world and Nugau's are not linear, and she is inexplicably enmeshed in a war between humanity and elves. But with their worlds at battle, is it worth fighting for each other . . . ? Praise for Threads that Bind: 'A fantastical - and utterly original - world. A must-read for all fantasy fans.'
