‘The King’s Gift’ By Sarah Newland

After witnessing the fall of his kingdom, once proud Einar stoops to avenging his people by assassinating the Emperor. However, he finds the Roman palace filled not only with guards, but the ghosts of Einar’s people. He must face his own demons if he stands any chance of reaching the Emperor’s chambers, and even then, can he murder a man in cold blood? As King, he’s the only one able to prevent the conquest of his kingdom, but changing the past comes with a price.
