Two Twisted Crowns. The Shepherd King #2

Two Twisted Crowns is the 2nd book in The Shepherd King Series. In the dark, spellbinding sequel to One Dark Window , Elspeth must confront the weight of her actions and she and Ravynembark on a perilous quest to save the kingdom.
Gripped by a tyrant king and in the thrall of dark magic, the kingdom is in peril. Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence Cards, but the last – and most important – one remains to be found: the Twin Alders.
If they’re going to find the card before Solstice and set free the kingdom, they will need to journey through the dangerous mist-cloaked forest. The only one who can lead them through is the monster that shares Elspeth’s head: the Nightmare.
And he’s not eager to share any longer. Enthralling from beginning to shocking end.
