A Stag in the Shadows (Kingdom of Durundal #4)
S.E. Turner
Captured and taken to Hezekiah Hall, she is incarcerated in a remote tower while her people are shackled and branded as slaves. Though help from an unlikely source promises to groom her into a deadly assassin ... with one condition. But she'll do anything to win freedom for her people ... no matter the consequences.
'On my blood, I will triumph over my enemies ... let the bloody battle begin.'
Excerpt:
'You might be my nemesis now, but I do not fear you. You think you have the power to destroy me, to keep me here, to imprison me - but you are wrong. I am the power - and one day I will destroy you. On that day I will see you as a blade of grass on the ground, and cast aside your illusion of grandeur. Your face of stone will be like a veil of silk to me, a soft cushion of feathers, a bed of straw. I will escape your clutches and take flight like the owl. I will camouflage myself like the moth and I will look back at you with my huge vacuoles and watch you crumble into the pits of the earth - and then I will be gone from here forever.'
Magical: ★★★★★
