Description

In the kingdom of Kandala, a deadly plague is spreading, and the rare Moonflower petals needed to make a cure are controlled by the ruthless ruling elite. By night, apothecary’s apprentice Tessa Cade risks everything to steal medicine for those who cannot afford it, while Corrick, the king’s feared enforcer, struggles to preserve order in a kingdom on the brink of rebellion. As their paths collide, both must question the loyalties, laws, and sacrifices that have shaped their world. A tense fantasy of resistance, moral courage, political intrigue, and forbidden connection, the novel combines high-stakes adventure with Brigid Kemmerer’s emotionally charged, character-driven storytelling.
