In The Jewel, we followed Violet in her servitude under the Duchess of the Lake. In this compelling digital novella, we find out more about Violet's best friend, Raven, during her time as a surrogate for the Countess of the Stone. From the author of The Jewel comes a compelling and heart-wrenching digital novella which follows Violet's best friend, Raven, during her time as surrogate for the Countess of the Stone. When Raven is bought at the Auction, she knows immediately that things will not go well. And when she arrives at the Countess's palace, Raven quickly discovers that the Countess is much less interested in having a baby than experimenting with Raven's mind and body. Raven can only hope for an escape ... and to see Violet again, all the while reminding herself that she is Raven Stirling, and she does matter. The Handmaid's Tale meets The Other Boleyn Girl in a world where brutality and beauty collide. This is ideal reading for anyone desperately awaiting the sequel to The Jewel.
