The Serpent's Tale mind Now Cross must go on

Now Cross must go on the hunt for the most cunning

When her grandmother comes to stay for a month and volunteers at her school library

and our bond to the souls in the hereafter

The king must once again summon Adelia Aguilar, mistress of the art of death, to uncover the truth. S1
