war, dangerous enemies around every corner, and a battle for her
heart—now in a collectible hardcover edition featuring gorgeous
full-color endpapers, an exclusive designed hardcover case, and a
never-before-seen bonus chapter.
The threat of war has arrived at Diem’s doorstep, along with a new

next thirty days by bargaining with the people she hates most: the
royal family of House Corbois.
But as she dives into the world of the Descended elite, Diem quickly

prejudices are challenged, and new loyalties blur the line between
friend and foe.
With her mother still missing, the secrets she left behind can no
longer be ignored—and neither can the Guardians and their demands.
Caught between an old flame and a sizzling new spark, Diem must
confront the truth about who she is and what she wants before time runs
out.
Life in the perilous Thorn district is a constant battle for Arvelle
and her younger brothers. And the vampire standing on her doorstep is
about to turn their world upside down.
Faced with an unthinkable choice, Arvelle makes a magically binding vow
to do the impossible: kill the emperor, an ancient vampire created by
the god Umbros. But first, she must enter the Sundering—an arena where
only the fastest, strongest, and deadliest survive long enough to be
selected for the emperor’s elite guard.
She quickly draws the ire of the Primus, the powerful figure charged
with protecting the emperor. But the vampire under the armor is the
last person Arvelle expects to encounter in the emperor’s court.
With her brothers’ lives in the balance, Arvelle has no choice but to
ally with the man who once shattered her heart… and with the emperor’s
sadistic son, Rorrik—two vampires whose motives are impossible to pin
down. Rorrik holds the key to understanding the powers Arvelle is
developing—abilities that would put a price on her head if discovered
by the emperor.
To survive the arena and complete her mission, Arvelle must get to the
bottom of a conspiracy that will change everything she thought she knew
about herself—and the two vampires who are deeply entwined with her
destiny…

From the author of Station Eleven, Emily St. John Mandel, The Glass
Hotel is the story of the lives caught up in two very different
tragedies: a woman disappearing from a container ship, and a
massive Ponzi scheme imploding in New York. 'A perfect
post-lockdown read' - Sunday Times 'Elegant, haunting' - The Times
'A damn fine novel . . . evocative and immersive' - George R. R.
Martin Vincent is the beautiful bartender at the exclusive Hotel
Caiette. When New York financier Jonathan Alkaitis walks into the
hotel and hands her his card, it is the beginning of their life
together. That same night, a hooded figure scrawls a note on the
windowed wall of the hotel: 'Why don't you swallow broken glass.'
Leon Prevant, a shipping executive, sees the note from the hotel
bar and is shaken to his core. When Alkaitis's investment fund is
revealed to be a Ponzi scheme, Leon loses his retirement savings in
the fallout, but Vincent seemingly walks away unscathed. Until, a
decade later, she disappears from the deck of one of Leon's ships .
