Dive deeper into the story with full-color illustrations in the Illustrated Depths Edition.
She was given to the sea to keep a secret. Now the monster inside her is waking-and love may be her only way out.
As a child, Ocevia Kallallis was traded to the Sea Goddess to erase a bloodline too dangerous to protect. Cursed into the shape of a mermaid and forced to collect souls for the deep, she obeyed without question. Because obedience meant survival. Because mermaids who disobeyed were punished.
But when her best friend, Azure, vanishes after saving a human man from drowning, Ocevia risks everything to find her. Her search awakens something ancient and violent inside her and unearths the truth of what she was always meant to become.
After a daring escape to the human world, Ocevia meets Markos, a quiet man with a guarded past who vows to help her evade the Sea Goddess's hunters. For the first time, she dares to imagine a future of her own making.
But the sea never forgets its monsters. And the goddess always collects her debts.
Author's Note:Song of Death and Goddess of Death are part of a dark fantasy romance companion duet. The two storylines run parallel and can be read in tandem or independently. While the narratives intertwine, each book delivers a complete, emotionally satisfying arc with no cliffhangers.
