In a realm filled with dark legends, a young pirate captain embarks on a quest for an enchanted dagger to escape his troubled past. His journey takes an unexpected turn when the daughter of his enemies secretly boards his ship, forcing him to confront a choice between an unanticipated love and the relentless pursuit of vengeance that shadows him.

Every journey must end... one way or another. And in Declan's experience, that usually means death. Death of his enemies. Death of his friends. Their one hope of surviving is in the hands of a man he wants to see suffer... even if it means letting the darkness within take over. But even if he retrieves the dagger, he could still lose everything. He could still lose her. He may not be good enough-he may not deserve her-but he's not about to let her go. Not without a fight. ______________ This is the final book in the Aisling Sea series.
