Book Synopsis
A princess driven from a conquered kingdom. A captain who refuses to look away. A realm under enemy rule.
When Princess Melody of Marethis escapes a violent coup, her kingdom falls into the hands of the Obsidian Hand. With her family imprisoned and the throne stolen, Melody becomes the last free heir of a sea-bound realm.
Centuries earlier, Marethis’s greatest treasure—the Aquamarine—was hidden to keep its power from enemy hands. Now, with the kingdom occupied, it is Marethis’s only hope. Guided by ancient riddles and royal secrets, Melody must find it before the Obsidian Hand does.
Finn, captain of the Storm Chaser, never intended to challenge an empire. Once enslaved and now fiercely free, he has sworn never to abandon those who need him. Helping Melody risks his ship, his crew, and the life he’s fought to build—but some fights cannot be ignored.
A tale of magic, treasure hunts, and the courage to stand when the tide turns.
