Darest stands on the verge of a Golden Age. The revival of the Rathen line and a blood
price won from the Fair has drawn a flood of visitors eager to snatch their
share of changing fortune – or at least one of the fabulous prizes offered at
the Spring Festival.
Among those coaxed back to the once-failing kingdom is
Gentian Calder, daughter of Shapers.
Before she can decide whether to risk her life by staying, news arrives
to put all other considerations aside.
The Atlaran Ambassador and half the heirs of the western kingdoms have
disappeared on Darest's border.
Gentian agrees to join the Diamond Coeurveur and his
apprentice in a rush to join the search.
Will they find the missing? A
plot against Darest? Or uncover older
secrets, buried deep?
