As Spymaster to the Queen, Aya's blood oath ensures she protect those she fights alongside - including Will, the Queen's Enforcer and Aya's bitter rival.

When rumors of a rise in dark magic spreading in a nearby kingdom, both are sent to investigate.

But when Aya's power acts beyond her gods-given affinity, she risks being turned into a weapon in a war she doesn't know how to win.

And when her relationship with Will unexpectedly shifts, neither know the danger that will follow . . .
