Nona, unlike others, woke up in a stranger’s body six months ago. Her city is under siege by zombies and a monstrous blue sphere threatens the planet. The Blood of Eden forces, expecting the Emperor Undying, want Nona to be their weapon against the Nine Houses. Despite these circumstances, Nona yearns for an ordinary life with her loved ones. Yet, she is haunted by dreams of a woman with a skull-painted face.

Sequel to: Harrow the Ninth.
