THREE WEEKS AFTER the coup that devastated Everness, two fugitive royals, a former smuggler, a spy out of work, and a restless runaway find themselves in Port Galan, one of two remaining free cities on Lindbarrow.
FERRIN VALCARA is adjusting to life in Port Galan after narrowly skirting death in the capital. When a creature emerges from the waves to tell her she is destined to travel to an island that defies the flow of time itself, she is torn. If she undertakes this quest, she will be leaving behind everyone and everything she knows for an undetermined length of time. Can she do what it takes to discern Bourjony’s strange occult motives and stop them from completely destroying her country?
SOVIEL LARKSEN has completed her first serious undercover mission, and is eager to take on more. When an opportunity arises to slip into the entourage of the wife of one of Bourjony’s big players, she can’t say no. Soviel has landed herself right in the lion’s den. With no allies around for miles, her cover must remain seamless and her guard up at all times. As she delves deeper and deeper into unraveling the enemy’s plans, she finds things may be more dire than expected.
FORMER PRINCE RHIACH has dived headfirst into the allied encampment as an administrative ambassador between the divided, often tumultuous, groups of soldiers now forced to cohabitate. After agreeing to work with short-fused troublemaker Lachlan, the two uncover the gruesome truth about the previous spring’s druggings.
ASH MAZRIHN just wants to find where she fits in this new, uncharted territory. Whether it’s as a lowly deck swabber or a navigator’s assistant, she just wants to get back out on the sea. When she makes an impulsive decision amid a crisis, her quick thinking earns her respect and attention, and most notably, a new position that may have her in way over her head.
LUKAS MAZRIHN has been finding a way to keep his business as a smuggler and general procurer of things afloat. However, lingering guilt from a close ally’s continued missing status hangs over his head like a dark cloud, dredging up unresolved and deadly ghosts from his past. Can he put his skills to the test and track down Ryder? And if he can, will it separate him from his past?
Five years ago, after the mysterious disappearance of her mother, the Queen of Lindbarrow, Ferrin fled her home nation. Under a false name, she joined up with a pirate crew and spent those five years sailing the seas, running schemes, and soaking up every delight to be found on the Meddemara and in its ports.
Now, five years later, Ferrin’s plans are thwarted when she finds herself taken by force back to her homeland. Still reeling from the betrayal that sent her home, she finds much has changed in her absence.
A rift grows between her people, fed by her father’s state of constant rage and greed. A mysterious, dangerous drug is causing its victims to descend into fits of madness. Magic, thought to have long been faded from the world, trickles back in unexpected ways, and spies lurk in every shadow.
On the brink of civil war, Ferrin, her brother the Crown Prince, an old friend harboring a big secret, and a handsome but infuriating smuggler fight to protect their nation as forces both exterior and interior threaten to crumble Lindbarrow into ruin.
