Being the Lyternian General, Eleanor has always liked things to go according to plan. And that's how things used to be, with the Kingdom safe and the Peace Treaty securely signed.
However, when a certain Flynn Zendor arrives with news of a threat sent to the Carlythian King, Eleanor finds herself preparing for battle against Lyternia's bloodthirsty rivals. She soon discovers that the war isn't all she has to worry about, and the cause of it all may be a little too close to home.
With whisperings of magic, a missing Commander and a best-friend who isn't all who he seems, Eleanor must learn to choose between what's right, and what's good. Though with people watching her every move and questions turning up around every corner, Eleanor's path is not as easy as it seems. It's riddled with danger, death-threats, daggers and blood...
And through it all, there's only a single thing she's certain of: He's watching.
