At death's brink, Clove Helrose is faced with a choice: die at the hands of her jealous lover or become indebted to a feral god and live.
The wayward witch has no intention of honoring the magical debt, but when the deity’s first command sends her to her childhood home, a place where the woods whisper names and sirens lure men into the tumultuous sea, she can’t help but be intrigued.
After a life of thievery, Clove expects judgment and disapproval upon her return. Instead she’s attacked by an Angel of Death, whose dreamy eyes and devious intentions leave her craving his kiss of death.
With dark forces gaining power, Clove must decide what kind of witch she wants to be: the villain she always has been or the hero her town needs.
