Summary

All the trials and turmoils and terrors of a hero's life have done very little to prepare October Daye for the expectation that she will actually share her life with someone else, the good parts and the bad ones alike. With an official break from hero duties from the Queen in the Mists, and her family wholly on board with this new version of "normal," she's doing her best to adjust. Then an old friend and ally turns out to have been an enemy in disguise for this entire time. Now October's brief respite turns into a battle for her life, her community, and everything she has ever believed to be true. The debts of the Broken Ride are coming due. Whether she incurred them or not, October is going to be the one who has to pay.
