The Empress of Time

"Sharp and seductive…a fantasy with teeth." -Julie C. Dao, author of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns on The Keeper of Night

In this riveting sequel to The Keeper of Night, a half Reaper, half Shinigami soul collector must defend her title as Japan's Death Goddess from those who would see her-and all of Japan-destroyed.

Death is her dynasty.

Ren Scarborough is no longer the girl who was chased out of England-she is the Goddess of Death ruling Japan's underworld. But Reapers have recently been spotted in Japan, and it's only a matter of time before Ivy, now Britain's Death Goddess, comes to claim her revenge.

Ren's last hope is to appeal to the god of storms and seas, who can turn the tides to send Ivy's ship away from Japan's shores. But he'll only help Ren if she finds a sword lost thousands of years ago-an impossible demand.

Together with the moon god Tsukuyomi, Ren ventures across the country in a race against time. As her journey thrusts her in the middle of scheming gods and dangerous Yokai demons, Ren will have to learn who she can truly trust-and the fate of Japan hangs in the balance.
