The world stands on the edge of the first peace it has known for generations.  The fragile alliance formed between the New Kingdom and Telesia is rocked to its foundations when recently crowned King Alex falls in love with Lydia, a fisher’s daughter from the rebellious Estmarch, throwing his aunt’s carefully laid plans into chaos.

And then a horrific act of betrayal drives the Kingdom once more to the brink of war.

The 2007 EPPIE (Excellence in Electronic Publishing) finalist and shortlisted for the 2007 Pluto Award.
