A magic as lethal as it is irresistible...
A cloak-and-dagger war for supremacy...
A love that will cost her whole world...
Alyssa is one of the few children in Khania born with the ability to fly. But the magic that allows her to defy gravity consumes an adult's soul, so on her seventeenth birthday she must don the grounding chains and become earthbound. It's the edict of the saints and it is inviolable.
Or so she thinks until she meets Kal-a self-important, annoying scholar of the soaring phenomenon, who accosts her with a blasphemous proposal: share with him her most private soaring experiences, in violation of every religious and moral norm, and in return he will provide the one thing she longs for the most, the one thing she shouldn't even dream of: a way out of the grounding chains and back into the sky.
As the couple set out to unravel the millennium-old mystery surrounding soarers, they find themselves in the middle of a war for supremacy which could devastate their world. And if the price for saving her people is Alyssa's heart, will she be willing to pay it?
