From New York Times bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree – the soaring fifth novel in the bestselling Bone Season series.

As she makes her way back to the revolution, her journey takes her to Venice, where she learns a dangerous secret – one that could change the face of the war between humans and immortals. Before she can return to London, she must help the Domino Programme unravel the sinister Operation Ventriloquist.

"Shannon expands the world of her Bone Season series in this pedal-to-the-metal fifth instalment . . . The stakes are high, the pace is rapid, and Shannon’s gift for evocative prose makes the shadowy streets of Venice come alive . . . Series fans will be thrilled" - Publishers Weekly

"Impressively multi-layered . . . As the series’ scope and the implications of the war against Scion expand, Shannon’s narrative style reads more action-thriller than fantasy. Paige’s powers as a dreamwalker are rarely used here, but when clairvoyance is at play, the story shines . . . this series still has plenty of fight left" - Kirkus Reviews
