White as snow

de Tanith Lee

"Arpazia is the aging queen who paces the halls of a warlord's palace. Cold as winter, she has only one passion for the mysterious hunter who courts the outlawed old gods of the woodland. Coira is the princess raised in the shadow of her mother's hatred. Avoided by both her parents and half-forgotten by her father's court, she grows into womanhood alone until the mirror speaks, and blood is spilled, and the forest claims her."--Jacket.
