Eira has survived alone in the frozen wilds by staying hidden—until she risks everything to save an injured snow wolf. Her silver hair leaves a trail, drawing Magnus and the Frost Hunters deep into the forest. When the hunters set the wolf valley on fire to force her out, Eira charges straight into the flames. To save a trapped cub, she unleashes a power she has spent her life fearing: ice that can freeze fire, weapons, and the ground beneath her enemies.
But the power keeps spreading. Magnus, believing she may become the disaster he was trained to stop, fires a blood-sealing rune arrow through her heart. Eira dies in the snow only after seeing the wolves escape. Then her blood awakens an ancient royal rune buried beneath her body. Her dead heart turns to ice, she rises again, and a violent frost storm consumes the valley. From the blizzard, a silver-masked stranger named Loki appears, kneels before her, and calls her “Your Majesty.”
Eira soon learns she is the lost daughter of Ragnhild, the last Frost Queen of Jotunheim—and that Asgard may have built its power on a lie. To control the storm inside her, she must sacrifice part of her soul, uncover what the Frost Hunters are really protecting, and decide whether Magnus is still her hunter... or the one man willing to turn against everything he believed to stand beside her.
