For decades, Ara's kingdom has suffered from a bloody invasion. Generations of gifted men and women have been murdered by assassins in order to cripple their armies. One life, one village at a time, her kingdom is losing. Their only hope lies in an ancient prophecy of a priestess who will rise up and drive out the invaders.
When the assassins come to believe that priestess is Ara, her only hope of surviving lies the hands of a man with a mysterious past and a dubious gift of his own. Ara has much to learn, and fast. Because unless she can stay ahead of the Assassins, she may not live long enough to develop into the priestess fate is forcing her to be.
