After the treaty is signed, the real fight for the soul of their nation begins. This time, they fight together. The war is over. The island of Elyssia has been freed from the clutches of the Rosalian Legion, power restored to the island's monarchy.

However, after leading the Resurgence from the front, Princess Caelin now finds herself sitting and waiting more often than not. When magical prodigy Alain Flynn breaks into her palace to kidnap her, she hears of a secret slave camp—and, after thwarting the attempt, she forms a plan.

Under the guise of a successful kidnapping, she will investigate the camp, expose the secrets, and take control of the fate of her kingdom. For fans of The Winner's Trilogy and the Throne of Glass series.
