Nor a longtemps rêvé d’être l’heureuse élue et de quitter sa vie étriquée. Pourtant, c’est à sa sœur jumelle, Zadie, que reviendra cet honneur.

Quand Zadie se blesse, cependant, Nor doit prendre sa place et se faire passer pour elle.

Mais la vie sur le continent ne ressemble à rien de ce qu’elle avait imaginé… Le prince Céren, son fiancé, est aussi froid et lugubre que son château de pierre qui recèle de sombres secrets. Et Nor va découvrir que les projets de son futur mari pourraient bien menacer Varénia.

Pour trouver des réponses à ses questions, Nor devra tenir son rôle et s’adapter aux coutumes de la cour.

Elle sait que le moindre faux pas lui coûtera la vie. Mais aussi celle de sa sœur, et de son peuple…

Liora has spent her life in hiding, knowing discovery could mean falling prey to the king’s warlock, Darius, who uses mages’ magic to grow his own power. But when her worst nightmare comes to pass, Darius doesn’t take her. Instead, he demands that her younger sister return to the capital with him. To make matters worse, Evran, Liora’s childhood friend and the only one who knows her secret, goes missing following Darius’s visit, leaving her without anyone to turn to.

To find Evran and to save her sister, Liora must embrace the power she has always feared. But the greatest danger she’ll face is yet to come, for Darius has plans in motion that will cause the world to fall into chaos—and Liora and Evran may be the only ones who can stop him.

Leelo has spent her entire life on Endla, coexisting with the bloodthirsty Forest and respecting the poisonous lake that protects her island from outsiders who seek to destroy it. But as much as Leelo cares for her community, she struggles to accept that her younger brother will be exiled by his next birthday, unless he gains the magic of enchanted song so vital to Endla.

When Leelo sees a young outsider on the verge of drowning in the lake, she knows exactly what she's supposed to do. But in a moment that will change everything, Leelo betrays her family, her best friend, and Endla by making an unthinkable choice.

Discovery could lead to devastating consequences for both Leelo and the outsider, Jaren, but as they grow closer, Leelo realizes that not all danger comes from beyond the lake—and they can only survive if Leelo is willing to question the very fabric of her society, her people, and herself.

Rations dwindle each day, and unhappy murmurings threaten to crack the facade of the years-long charade being played within the castle walls.
