What would you do, if life as you knew it ended in an instant?

In Mercia, flesh has a price-and life an even cheaper one. The children of a once-proud land now kneel at the feet of invaders intent on imposing the rule of a faraway empire. When they came, the world changed in an instant, for peasant and king alike. Now everyone must learn to adapt, or perish, even as they ask themselves: can love survive conquest?

Kimber the farm girl is captured and sold into a world of depravity. Jordan the princess, desperate to escape an arranged marriage with a man she hates, makes a deal with the devil. Paige the apprentice surgeon comes home, only to face a nightmare beyond even her power to imagine. Anhaga the tribesman swears his allegiance and bides his time. While Lucas, the bastard prince and cannibal, fights to forge a place for himself in the frozen reaches of the home he never wanted. Where he soon discovers an enemy far greater than anyone, conqueror or conquered, can imagine.

And learns that an even greater evil is coming.

About the author

P.J. Fox published her first story when she was ten. Between then and the present moment, she detoured to, in no particular order, earn several degrees (including a law degree), bore everyone she knew with lectures about medieval history, get married, and start a family. She realized, ultimately, that she had to make a go of this writing thing because nothing else would ever make her happy.
