We are incredibly excited to announce that our June Locked Library theme is . . .
A Warrior’s Shadow
Legend says the Soldier drowned kingdoms in darkness. In truth, she was just a girl, forged into a weapon by her power-hungry father. Years later, she escapes.
But when war looms and magic decays, she is captured by her father’s ruthless new heir—a woman obsessed with her sister’s murder. A murder the Solider committed in her past life. Now, the Soldier’s power over darkness may be the only way to save their world, if she can survive court intrigue, her father’s deadly schemes, and the dangerous bond forming between her and the new heir.
