Synopsis: From the panorama of history and legend, Paula Volsky weaves a spellbinding tale of magic, conspiracy, and desire in the frozen land of Rhazaulle, where the living and the dead live peacefully side by side...until now. Of all the excesses indulged by the decadent Rhazaullean nobility, only one is forbidden-necromancy. It is to these black arts that Prince Varis is addicted, hoping to usurp the Wolf Throne. His greatest challenge comes in the person of his beautiful niece Shalindra, grown to womanhood in the shadow of exile and dedicated to bringing her brother Cerrov-the rightful heir-to the throne. Seized and brought to her uncle's mountain stronghold, Shalindra is both repelled and fascinated by the mysterious Varis, master of the dead. As winter approaches, their encounter threatens to shape for both of them a destiny far different-and more dangerous-than either could have imagined.
