    About this audiobook

    WELCOME TO THE CENTENNIAL

    Every hundred years, the island of Lightlark appears for only one hundred days to host a deadly game, where the rulers of six realms fight to break their curses and win unparalleled power. Each ruler has something to hide. Each curse is uniquely wicked.
    To break them—and save themselves and their realms—one ruler will die.

    To survive, Isla Crown must
    LIE.
    CHEAT.
    BETRAY.
    Even as love complicates everything …

    Special Edition with bonus Grim chapter included at the end!
