A young girl sits in a crooked hallway, the walls painted vibrantly in jeweled shades as a naked woman parades past with a faceless man. Over the cacophonous sounds of debauchery, the girl can hear the distant crash of waves against the harbor, wondering why her brother had followed the woman known as Madame Myra into a garish building called the Mariposa. She closes her eyes, searching for her Sight in the darkness behind her lids, but knows the gift won't let her see her own fate.

Taja Asil has spent the last four years of her life trapped in a brothel known as the Mariposa, run by a viscous woman named Madame Myra. Her endless days are spent locked in her room reading fortunes, while her nights are spent in the company of men she's never met. Sold by her brother and no longer able to use her gift of Sight, Taja is stranded and alone. 
That is, until renowned marauder, thief, and pirate Andreas Morrow crashes through her bedroom window offering freedom. What Taja has yet to realize is that on the open seas nothing is given without a price, and to never trust a pirate.

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath.

A deathly curse is bound to the Amulet, and its theft will set in motion a series of events which might destroy Primsharah for good ... and the world along with it. Together, Arran and Inna flee across the desert to find out who is stealing the Artifacts and why. But Arran's time is limited as the curse flows through his veins, with no hope for salvation save for the stubborn princess who is determined to see his survival.
