To reach her, Dymitr must ally with the ones he's sworn to kill.Pain is Ala's inheritance. A fear-eating zmora with little left to lose, Ala awaits death from the curse she carries.

But Dymitr's secrets--and his true motives--may be the thing that actually destroys them"-- - McMillan Palgrave
An instant USA Today bestseller!
When Among Crows is swift and striking, drawing from the deep well of Slavic folklore and asking if redemption and atonement can be found in embracing what we most fear.
We bear the sword, and we bear the pain of the sword.
On Kupala Night, Dymitr arrives in Chicagoâs monstrous, magical underworld with a perilous mission: pick the mythical fern flower and offer it to a cursed creature in exchange for help finding the legendary witch Baba Jaga.
Ala is a fear-eating zmora afflicted with a bloodline curse thatâs slowly killing her. She's just desperate enough to say yes to Dymitr, even if she doesnât know his motives.
Over the course of one night, Ala and Dymitr risk life and limb in search of Baba Jaga, and begin to build a tentative friendship. . . but when Ala finds out what Dymitr is hiding, it could destroy them both.
"Lovely, lush, and full of otherworldly longing, this modern fairytale about righteousness and the weight we bear for love is Roth at her most imaginative and ethereal."âOlivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six
