Human…Faye…Irrelevant…Powerful… Secrets are a game to Myrna’s family. If only she were a player and not a pawn. This job was to be a way out from beneath her family’s thumb, but there seems to be no escape. Not when she’s exposed so quickly to the magic of Haszwalds and the patrons within. Was it the book Balance Beholden which revealed the binding that only the Queen of Faerie can remove and started her on this path? Or was it something else? Myrna’s convinced, the secrets lie in her past. A story cloaked in shadow but which must hold more. For enemies appear from all sides, their goal to snuff out her light before she can control her arcane. It’s up to Myrna and Guardian Kelan Brynes to discover the truth of the past if she is to have a future. For even the king of the enemy court is coming, and his hands are bathed in blood. As the clock ticks and the forces of darkness close in, Myrna must harness her inner strength and embrace her true heritage to save those she loves.
