The Lake of Stolen Bones

Danger on every side. Dark secrets ahead.

Tristan and Sabine are headed for enemy territory, bound by blood, desire, and the burden each now carries.
For Tristan, it’s leading an army he’s been ordered to abandon to hunt for the lost writings of a mad prophet. For Sabine, it’s entering a land that may reveal everything she fears about her past…and her future.

Even Rhys can’t outrun duty when he crosses paths with Lystra, a captured wolf-clan askara with her own score to settle.

All four are pushed into unfamiliar territory and haunted by choices none is ready to face.

But nothing will prepare them for what’s waiting at the lake in the dark heart of Pyrie: secrets powerful enough to threaten loyalties and unmake more than kingdoms.

The Lake of Stolen Bones is the second book in The Children of Verus Trilogy.
