Celaena must decide what she will fight for: survival, love or the future of a kingdom. Because an assassin cannot have it all ...And trying to may just destroy her. Love or loathe Celaena, she will slice open your heart with her dagger and leave you bleeding long after the last page of this New York Times bestselling sequel, in what is undeniably THE hottest new fantasy series.

Pour avoir une chance de recevoir une greffe de poumon, elle doit éviter tout ce qui pourrait entraîner une infection, respectant strictement une règle de distance de six pieds. Will Newman, quant à lui, désire échapper aux contraintes de l'hôpital et se désintéresse de son traitement. Il rêve de liberté à sa majorité, prêt à quitter l'hôpital derrière lui. Cependant, il représente un risque important pour Stella ; même un souffle pourrait compromettre sa santé et son éligibilité à la greffe. La nécessité de rester éloignés semble être une punition sévère, mais en naviguant à travers leurs sentiments, ils commencent à se demander si un peu de proximité pourrait valoir le risque. Peuvent-ils retrouver une partie de l'intimité que leurs conditions leur ont volée, ou la distance sera-t-elle trop grande ?
