β¦ Synopsis
Twenty years after a deadly pandemic ravaged the world, Darragh Fergus Anluan and the people of his village have carved out a hard but simple life in the Irish countryside. But with winter comes sickness, and Darragh must travel to Dublin in search of medicine. What he finds there is a ruined city ruled by a madman, where scavenging is punishable by death . . . or conscription.
Ciaran Daly came to Ireland with aid and optimism, but instead was enslaved by the so-called King of Dublin. After months of abuse from the king and his men, he has no reason to believe this newcomer will be any different. Except Ciaran finds himself increasingly drawn to Darragh, whose brutish looks mask how sweet and gentle he really is.
The tenderness Darragh feels for the kingβs treasured pet is treason, but itβs hardly the only betrayal brewing in this rotten kingdom. Rebellions and rival gangs threaten the kingβs power, but not nearly as much as Darragh and Ciaranβwhose only hope for freedom is the fall of the king.
READER DISCRETION ADVISED.
