War is coming—and Feyre is ready.

After the events of the previous book, alliances are fragile, enemies are closer than ever, and the fate of Prythian hangs by a thread. Feyre returns to the Spring Court with a plan, but nothing is as simple as it seems.

As kingdoms rise, secrets unravel, and loyalties are tested, Feyre and the Night Court must gather allies, out manoeuvre their enemies, and prepare for a war that will change everything.
