Adaira, heiress of the east, knows the spirits only answer to a bard's music, enticing them to return the missing girls. But there's only one bard capable of drawing the spirits forth by song: her childhood enemy Jack Tamerlaine. He hasn't stepped foot on Cadence in ten long years, content to study music at the mainland university, but as Jack and Adaira reluctantly work together it becomes apparent the trouble with the spirits is far more sinister than first thought and an older, darker secret lurks beneath the surface, threatening to undo them all.

Den spennende fortsettelsen og avslutningen på Divine Rivals-serien. To uker er gått siden Iris Winnow vendte hjem fra fronten, forslått og nedbrutt, men krigen er langt fra over. Roman er savnet og innbyggerne i byen Oath befinner seg i en tilstand av mistro og fornektelse. Roman har ingen minner om fortiden etter at han våknet opp i guden Dacres rike, men da han forsikres om at hukommelsen vil komme tilbake, begynner han å skrive artikler for Dacre - selv om han er usikker på hva slags rolle han spilte i krigen. Da han finner et mystisk brev foran et garderobeskap, blir Roman først mistenksom, deretter nysgjerrig. Han begynner å brevveksle med den ukjente personen, og snart stilles han overfor et avgjørende valg: Skal han fortsette å stå ved Dacres side, eller forråde guden som reddet ham? Ettersom dagene blir mørkere, føres Iris og Roman nådeløst nærmere hverandre - og begge setter sine liv på spill for å forandre krigens gang. «Enda en fulltreffer fra Rebecca Ross, som beviser at det fins veldig lite hun ikke får til innen fantasygenren.» Paste Magazine.

Andra boken i Gudomliga rivaler-duologin»Ännu en fullträff från Rebecca Ross, som snabbt bevisar att det finns väldigt lite hon inte kan åstadkomma inom fantasygenren.« Paste MagazineTvå veckor har gått sedan Iris Winnow återvände hem från fronten, men kriget är långt ifrån över. Roman är försvunnen och staden Oath lever i ett tillstånd av misstro och förnekelse. När Iris och Attie får en ny chans att rapportera om guden Dacres framfart tar de tillfället i akt och beger sig västerut igen - trots den stora fara det innebär. Roman minns inget av det förflutna sedan han vaknade upp i Dacres rike, men när han försäkras om att minnena kommer att återvända börjar han skriva artiklar för Dacre, även om han är osäker på sin större roll i kriget. När ett märkligt brev anländer genom en garderobsdörr blir Roman först misstänksam, sedan nyfiken. Han inleder en brevväxling med en mystisk korrespondent och ställs inför ett avgörande val: stå kvar vid Dacres sida eller förråda guden som räddade honom. När dagarna blir mörkare förs Iris och Roman obevekligt närmare varandra - och de sätter båda sina liv på spel för att förändra krigets gång. I översättning av Isabel Valencia.
