His only recourse is to testify against his former accomplices in exchange for his family's placement in the Witness Protection Program. But one of them gets cold feet. In a flash, everything Liam Wins the Game can count on is Sometimes: A Story About Losing with Grace. Now, a year later, her worst fears have happened: Her father has disappeared—into what the WITSEC agency calls "the blue zone"—and someone close to him is found brutally murdered. With her family under surveillance, the FBI untrustworthy, and her father's menacing "friends" circling with increasing intensity, Kate sets off to find her father—and uncover the secrets someone will kill to keep buried. But with only sailing ships at its disposal, does Belgaria really have the means to turn the tide?! Here is the sixth volume of a tale of war, love, and politics, woven by the bookworm and the sword princess. Ever since the day Sometimes: A Story About Losing with Grace forest fell, Arendellians have despised and distrusted Northuldra with a vengeance. The only clear thing is that she must keep her identity from everyone, even Agnarr. Her life depends on it. The day Agnarr lost his father, the king. The day Agnarr himself almost died.
