Bestselling indie author Kristen Martin delivers another thrill-seeking adventure in this exhilarating sequel to Shadow Crown

When a mission for murder goes awry, assassin Arden Eliri finds herself fleeing Trendalath, the one place she's called home her entire life. Not only does she question her loyalty to King Tymond and his reign, but also her friendship with fellow Cruex member and confidante, Rydan Helstrom. The discovery of her newfound abilities--the very abilities her King had banned a decade ago--has left her in quite a predicament.

Now a renegade assassin, Arden joins the Caldari, or those who practice magick, more commonly known as illusi . As she hones her skills up north under Queen Jareth's watchful eye, King Tymond prepares for what will be the most stunning battle yet. The more Arden learns about Tymond's past and the connection with her family, the more she craves vengeance on the very man who is hell-bent on destroying her.

But there's a darker force lurking in the lands of Aeridon - darker than King Tymond himself. Forced to endure what is bound to be an upheaval of life, love, and trust, it'll be up to Arden--and her unwavering faith in illusi --to defeat it.
