Hearts That Cut is the thrilling sequel to Threads That Bind, drawing inspiration from Greek mythology and designed for fans of popular authors like Alexandra Bracken and Leigh Bardugo.

However, her journey takes an unexpected turn when her primary lead disappears, leaving her with only a few critical clues to guide her.

As Io delves deeper into her investigation, she uncovers a series of mysterious sibling disappearances across the Wastelands, which appear to be linked to the recent murders in Alante.

Determined to uncover the truth, Io embarks on a perilous journey to Nanzy, where she encounters formidable foes and unexpected allies. Each revelation she uncovers suggests that she may hold the fate of the world in her hands.
