Imposter's game afoot.
Sebastian was senteneced to All Fates Asylum for the crime of killing his sister, August. His twin. Except, he's innocent.The stakes are high as Sebastian struggles to find a way to regain his legacy; danger lurks at Cantre'r Gwaelod.
Lord Emyrs Pryce is power hungry and has plans; he just needs something Sebastian has. Emyrs wields people like tools and no one is safe. Envy, at times unbearable is nearly insatiable. For rarely what we think will assuage it, is what will. To suffer it is truly a torment.
Macsen is Lord of Cantre'r Gwaelod. After years, suddenly everything he wanted is being challenged and unsettled. Disturbing, but more problematic are the secrets coming to light. Macsen is forced to choose, either will mean loss.
Water, dangerous at times, but necessary. To steal water is to steal life.
Absolutely engaging read. Once I started it, it was hard to put down-- Who really needs to eat three times a day? While I had ideas of how things would play out, I was tricked a time or two during this tale of magic and malice. There was a twist in the story I wasn't expecting that opened so many more doors, while not closing any which made the resolution near impossible to guess.
Overall, a tale of greed and family infighting with a surprising romance.
