A war her father predicted and, apparently, prepared for. But at what price? The answer to that could cost Quinn her very humanity and will reveal stark truths about her role in the war to come. Following this revelation, Quinn can only acknowledge that some journeys require circuitous routes, even if that means attaining her freedom and rushing-not to the rescue of her besieged allies-but to the mythical island of Aeaea, home to the infamous witch, Circe, where Quinn will be confronted with cryptic visions of the present and a brutal choice: to sacrifice everything she is on the altar of what she could become, or to continue stumbling around in the dark.No matter her decision, Quinn knows she must see order restored to the Eighth Sea if she hopes to save her friends and allies. Until a familiar and unexpected face steps back into her life to remind her who she is-and has always-been. What's a goddess to do? After being lost at sea and taken prisoner by yet another denizen of the Titan realm, Quinn finds herself cold, wet, miserable, and very much alone.
