Book Description
Un royaume décadent inspiré d'une cour de Versailles gothique. Une nécromancienne traquée dissimulant une magie des morts interdite. Un prince et un prêtre-guerrier ennemis prêts à tout pour servir leur cause. Bienvenue à la cour de la Citadelle... À treize ans, Lore a échappé aux griffes d'un culte secret officiant dans les catacombes de la ville de Dellaire. Depuis dix ans, elle suit une unique règle : ne pas se laisser reprendre. Devenue trafiquante de poison pour le cartel qui l'a prise sous son aile, elle s'efforce de rester dans l'ombre et de garder le secret sur son affinité illicite avec la Mortem, la magie de la mort qui la lie irrémédiablement à la cité. Mais lorsqu'une transaction se passe mal, Lore est capturée par la Presque Mort, une faction de prêtres-guerriers habilités à utiliser la Mortem pour le compte du Roi Sanctifié... Lore pense être promise au bûcher, or le roi semble avoir d'autres intentions. Des villages entiers sont en train de disparaître aux confins du royaume sans explication rationnelle, et Lore est confrontée à un choix : user de sa magie pour enquêter et démasquer les responsables à la cour de la Citadelle... ou être exécutée. Mais dans cet étincelant monde d'en haut fait de lumière et de faux-semblants où elle ne peut accorder sa confiance à personne, Lore doit se trouver des alliés. Entre Gabriel, le duc devenu prêtre de la Presque Mort chargé de la guider et Bastian, le sulfureux et controversé prince héritier, Lore se perd dans un dangereux labyrinthe d'intrigues politiques, religieuses et amoureuses... alors que les sombres secrets qu'elle a laissés dans les profondeurs des catacombes sont en passe de la rattraper. « Magnifiquement écrit, d'une royale opulence et mystérieux à souhait. Hannah Whitten a construit un monde aussi sombre que fascinant, romantique et provocant. Si vous aimez les found families, les intrigues de cour, les secrets puissants, les prêtres sexy et les héroïnes fortes, le tout saupoudré d'une pincée (ou un peu plus) de nécromancie, ceci est le roman de vos rêves - et de vos cauchemars. » Ali Hazelwood, The Love Hypothesis « Un récit de Fantasy exquis. Mortel, inquiétant, et si attirant qu'on ne peut lâcher le joyau noir qu'est ce livre. » Stephanie Garber, Caraval « Ma nouvelle obsession. Un mélange parfait d'intrigues, de magie et d'amours interdites, servi par une écriture délicate et attirante tels les pétales d'une fleur vénéneuse. » Jodi Picoult, Mille petits riens « Sombre et luxuriant, délicieusement dangereux, ce livre vous enveloppe dans du velours tout en vous plaquant un couteau sur la gorge. » Ava Reid, A Study in Drowning « Je suis obsédée par cette histoire ! Hannah Whitten est définitivement une autrice à suivre. » Katee Robert, Neon Gods (Dark Olympus) « Une histoire décadente et mortelle, débordant de romance, d'intrigues et de magie corrompue. La prose de Whitten et ses personnages complexes et charismatiques captivent jusqu'à la dernière page. » C.L. Herman, All Of Us Villains

Book Description
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! The first daughter is for the Throne. The second daughter is for the Wolf. An instant NYT bestseller and word-of-mouth sensation, this dark, romantic debut fantasy weaves the unforgettable tale of a young woman who must be sacrificed to the legendary Wolf of the Wood to save her kingdom. But not all legends are true, and the Wolf isn't the only danger lurking in the Wilderwood. As the only Second Daughter born in centuries, Red has one purpose—to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in the hope he'll return the world's captured gods. Red is almost relieved to go. Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control, at least she knows that in the Wilderwood, she can't hurt those she loves. Again. But the legends lie. The Wolf is a man, not a monster. Her magic is a calling, not a curse. And if she doesn't learn how to use it, the monsters the gods have become will swallow the Wilderwood—and her world—whole. "If you ever wished Beauty and the Beast had more eldritch forest monsters and political machinations, this is the romance for you."―Alix E. Harrow, author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January "A brilliant dark fantasy debut!" —Jodi Picoult, NYT bestselling author
