Briseis has one chance to save her mother, but she'll need to do the impossible: find the last fragment of the deadly Absyrtus Heart. To locate the missing piece, she must turn to the blood relatives she's never known, learn about their secret powers, and take her place in their ancient lineage.
But Briseis is not the only one who wants the Heart, and her enemies will stop at nothing to fulfill their own ruthless plans. The fates tell of a truly dangerous journey, one that could end in more heartache, more death. Strengthened by the sisterhood of ancient magic, can Briseis harness her power to save the people she loves most?

I am so pleased that Briseis gets some time with her birth family. Circe was an absolute delight. And I enjoyed their quest. But in the first book, Marie felt like a whole woman. This book saw her as just a mischievous teen. Which is better to see her matched with Bri. But hard to swallow when you imagine she's been alive for centuries and her impulse control hasn't gotten any better. Really leaves a girl with no hope for the future of her own impulse control.
