Eira longs to see the world, but as the daughter of the fearsome Wolf Queen she’s lived all her life concealed in the Castle of Broken Boats at the heart of her mother’s kingdom. New subjects and prisoners arrive daily, and no one but traitors and Ryders leave. The Ryders, an elite group of sea wolf-riders who are the Wolf Queen’s most trusted warriors, are selected at a young age after proving themselves in the wolf trials. With her mother away in battle, Eira decides to disguise herself and participate in this year’s selection – but will she succeed? Will she be recognised? And most importantly of all … will she survive the wolf trials?
