<p class="ql-align-justify">Aboard the ship Scylla, there is no future or past. Jaq, her fickle lover Lily, and their all-female crew exist in an endless present. It's better this way. At least it keeps Lily by Jaq's side, where she belongs. But the <strong>meddling gods</strong> care little for Jaq's longing, and despite her protective rituals, their <strong>punishment </strong>arrives all the same:</p><p class="ql-align-justify"> </p><p class="ql-align-justify">A <em>man</em>, adrift on the open ocean. Delivered to snatch Lily from Jaq's arms forever.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"> </p><p class="ql-align-justify">Jaq knows what to do. She's lost Lily before. Her lover will return-when this interloper, this distraction, is snuffed out. But Jaq's <strong>murderous</strong> schemes may not be enough. The intruder's presence infects her crew with a <strong>plague</strong> her spells cannot cure: memory. And as the women recall how they came to <strong>Scylla</strong>, their minds bend one by one towards <strong>revenge</strong>.</p><p><br></p>
