Shannon Chakraborty, bestselling author of The City of Bronze, weaves a new trilogy of magic and mayhem on the high seas in this tale of pirates and sorcerers, forbidden artifacts and ancient mysteries, as one woman's determined quest to seize her last chance of glory... and write her own legend... Amina al-Sirafi should be pleased. After a scandalous career as one of the most notorious pirates of the Indian Ocean, and having survived treacherous knaves, vengeful merchant princes, multiple husbands, and a royal demon, she quietly retires with her family to lead a life of devotion, motherhood and absolutely nothing that hints at the presence of the supernatural. But when she's tracked down by the obscenely rich mother of a former crew member, she offers her a job no bandit could refuse: rescue the kidnapped daughter of her comrade for a sum fit for a king. The chance to have one last adventure with her crew, do right by an old friend, and win a fortune that will secure her family's future forever? A decision so obvious that it seems to be the will of God. However, the deeper Amina dives into the case, the clearer it becomes that there is something far more disturbing about that job, and the girl's disappearance, than she was led to believe. Because it's always risky to want to become a legend, seize your last shot at glory, taste a little more power... but the price may be your own soul.
