About this audiobook

She was hired to forge the crown that would enslave the king. She wasn't supposed to fall for the man beneath it. The wolf kings of Vareth are crowned in silver, the one metal that can cut a shifter's soul loose from the bond that ties every wolf in the realm. Only a thornwright can shape that silver, and Sorrel Vane is the last one left alive. When the king turns up murdered and his war-hardened brother is dragged toward a throne he never wanted, Sorrel is hauled out of the sooted forge district and given nineteen days to remake the shattered crown. What the court doesn't know is that the Dowager Queen already owns her, bought with the life of the only man who ever loved her. The crown Sorrel is building won't bind a kingdom. It will bind a king to a leash. The problem is Aurek Vasilian looks at her scarred hands like they belong to a person instead of a tool. He tells her the truth when everyone else in the palace lies. And the wolf inside her, silent for six long years, has started to wake every time he comes near. Now Sorrel is trapped between the father she's trying to save and the king she's supposed to destroy, with a murderer loose in the court and a coronation counting down toward a betrayal only she can see coming. To free him, she'll have to risk the one living thing she has left. To keep him, she'll have to gamble everything on a forbidden bond that hasn't been forged in four hundred years.
