In a kingdom ruled by fear, hope is rebellion—and love could be the deadliest weapon of all.
Joseon, 1506. Under the bloodstained reign of King Yeonsan, the people are silenced. Books are burned. Girls are stolen. And no one dares defy the crown—until seventeen-year-old Iseul risks everything to save her sister from the palace’s grasp. Leaving behind the safety of her village, Iseul journeys to the capital, where danger lurks in every shadow and defiance means death.
Prince Daehyun has long lived in the shadow of his monstrous half-brother, the king. Powerless to stop the atrocities unfolding within the palace walls, he secretly plots a coup to reclaim the throne and free the kingdom from Yeonsan’s cruelty. But in a court built on lies and betrayal, trust is a luxury he cannot afford—until a reckless village girl crashes into his world with nothing left to lose.
Thrown together by fate and bound by a shared hatred of the tyrant on the throne, Iseul and Daehyun must navigate a deadly web of politics, secrets, and impossible choices. But the closer they grow, the more dangerous their mission becomes—for the king isn’t the only threat. Falling for each other could destroy everything.
Passionate, heart-wrenching, and laced with tension, A Crane Among Wolves is a tale of resistance, sacrifice, and the kind of love that rises in the ashes of tyranny.
