An evil queen.

A captured sea witch.

And a pirate captain willing to do whatever it takes to save the one he loves.

Arie is trapped—again. Her memories have been stolen and her hands are stained with blood of the rebels. Queen Gemma has molded her into the perfect assassin, a pawn in a game far more sinister than Arie ever imagined. But as fragments of her memory begin to resurface, she realizes escape is no longer an option. She must pull down the mask and reveal the queen’s lies before she becomes the very monster Gemma wants her to be.

Captain Hook is on a warpath to find Arie. With the truth of his past laid bare, he must navigate the weight of legacy he never wanted against saving the woman he loves. But he won’t do it alone. Rallying a crew of rebels, assassins, and the few allies left willing to stand against Gemma, he sets his sights on one mission—bringing Arie back. Even if she no longer remembers who he is.

But time is running out. Gemma’s endgame looms ever closer, and the souls she’s gathered threaten to unleash something far darker than rebellion. If Arie and Ulrich can’t stop her, the entire Seven Seas will drown in a storm of stolen power, and neither of them may make it out alive
