Effy thought defeating the Fairy King would free her. But some dreams refuse to die.
Finally studying literature at Llyr’s elite college—the first woman ever admitted—Effy is no longer fighting monsters in the dark. But reality is no easier. The nation is watching, waiting for her to fail. And Preston, her brilliant, guarded partner, is haunted by dreams of a palace beneath the sea, where he rules—and loses himself.
As war erupts and old myths stir, Effy and Preston are pulled into a final struggle between fantasy and truth, love and legacy, dream and disaster.
In the stunning conclusion to the A Study in Drowning duology, Ava Reid crafts a story of haunted hearts, impossible dreams, and the courage it takes to wake up.
Some stories never end.
Some kings never sleep.
