Coming Winter 2025/26…

Eight years ago, Francesca was forced to marry the cruel King Kazimir. She can’t change that. But for the sake of her children, she can try to sever his grip on power. That’s why she has joined the Seeking, though to do so as queen is treason.

In the heart of the realm lies the Sword of Goliath, stolen by Kazimir’s ancestor in a long-ago crusade. The holy relic is said to grant supernatural favor to whoever claims it, and their descendants. Every seven years in the dead of winter, the Sword is left unguarded.

Francesca knows her odds are slim. But if she can outsmart and outlast the other seekers, perhaps she can claim the Sword’s favor for herself, giving her young daughter and unborn son a future free of their father’s monstrous rule.

More details coming soon…
