Kochin is a heartsooth. He has the power to heal any wound. Any wound, that is, except heartache. Or death.
Stricken with grief and descending into madness, Kochin vows to bring his love, Nhika, back to life. Realising he can’t simply wait for a miracle, he sets out on a desperate quest to Yarong: the island the first heartsooths called home. Now Kochin must decide how far he is willing to go to reunite with the woman who made the ultimate sacrifice for him.
Months later, Nhika wakes in a familiar manor with Kochin nowhere to be found. Following in his footsteps, she discovers the haunting path he walked to bring her back and a world ravaged by war. As enemies close in, can Nhika find Kochin before he’s lost forever?
The stunning dual point of view sequel to The Last Bloodcarver, where morals will be tested, hearts pushed to the limit, and fates determined once and for all.
