Newlyweds Armand and Vonnie are traveling to Armenia, where Armand hopes to reconnect with his estranged culture and investigate his family's troubled history. But when a sadistic oligarch kidnaps them, their honeymoon spirals into a living nightmare. Frightened and far from home, Armand and Vonnie race against time to locate a powerful artifact before their captor does, or they'll join the dead in the underworld forever. The couple's frantic quest takes them to lush mountains, desolate monasteries, and bustling markets, but they're not traveling alone. A distant cousin with a penchant for stretching the truth, a mythological strongman who hurls boulders like skipping stones, and a stuffy ghost with a love for poetry join them on this macabre treasure hunt. Armand must summon the courage of his ancestors and sacrifice himself for love, or the Scribe of Death will come for his beloved. Bittersweet and brutal, The Book of Wine and Sorrow is the thrilling conclusion to The Martyr's Vow series and a heart-aching testament to survival and wrestling with your demons.
