The King's Therapist

Runa Halversen spends her days untangling other people's nightmares. By night, she is married to a rising young pastor whose faith looks perfect from the outside and rotten from up close, a man the whole town seems determined to adore. When a man who should not exist walks into her of ice and calls himself the King of Tartarus, Runa's carefully ordered life fractures: he knows what she did in that basement as a teenager, he has been watching her ever since, and he has chosen her as the edge case that could change his realm forever. As the ruler of the pit begins to slip through the seams of her ordinary world, heaven and Tartarus circle each other for war, and Runa is dragged into the quiet violence between them, forced to learn what happens to a mortal woman when the balance of power between two worlds begins to tilt.
