   Summary

   Sent from Sunspear as a reminder of peace and goodwill, Saeryn Martell arrives at court believing she is promised a future. When it is quickly withdrawn, she is instead redirected into a marriage with Aerion Targaryen. As his mask slips, Saeryn learns how peace is kept at a woman’s expense-and how to endure without disappearing, even when love is used as control.
