In this captivating debut inspired by Hungarian history and Jewish mythology, a young pagan woman and a one-eyed captain of the Woodsmen unite to confront a tyrant. Évike, the only woman in her forest village without power, is shunned and blamed for her corrupted bloodline, stemming from her Yehuli father, a despised servant of the king. When soldiers from the Holy Order of Woodsmen arrive to claim her for a blood sacrifice, Évike is betrayed by her community. However, as monsters attack the Woodsmen during their journey, only Évike and the cold captain, Gáspár Bárány, survive. Gáspár, a disgraced prince, fears his zealous brother will seize the throne and unleash a violent reign against pagans and Yehuli alike. Understanding the pain of being an outcast, he and Évike forge a fragile alliance to thwart his brother's plans. Their journey from the harsh northern tundra to the polluted capital transforms their initial animosity into a deeper bond, rooted in shared experiences of alienation. Yet, as trust hangs in the balance and Évike reconnects with her father while uncovering her own magic, they must confront their loyalties and the sacrifices they are willing to make for a nation that has never embraced them.
