MAGIC BRINGS POWER AND POWER BREEDS WAR. There hasn't been magic in the Five Nations since The Last War, but something dangerous is brewing and the Grand Duchess can't seem to run away from the destiny that calls to her. After the Yeladelian royal family is slaughtered in their sleep, the surviving Grand Duchess Manya Kovnokozi makes a harrowing escape into a neighbouring kingdom. She knows there's a traitor among her that desperately wants to end the great Kovnokozi line, so Manya knows her only chance of finding said traitor is to not be a Kovnokozi at all. Under an assumed identity, Manya's plans to reclaim the Frostborn Throne go awry when she's whisked away to a foreign court as the Lady Lilianna Griffith for the Season. Her disguise at foreign court falters when an ancient power within Manya begins to bubble to the surface, painting a new and more perilous target on her back. Manya is stuck in a dizzying game of power, revenge, treachery, and a blossoming attraction to a crown prince that puts them both in more danger than they know. High Court has always been said to be a deadly affair, but this Season will prove just how deadly it can get. After all, revenge is a dish best served cold.
