Even magical families have their share of secrets. And Drow Royalty's secrets run even deeper—with a hint of danger.

Cheyenne Summerlin's finding that out firsthand.

Can anyone in her family tell the truth and avoid the mayhem?

That doesn't seem likely.

The Crown has their eye on Cheyenne and Ember. They've been tracking them all over town. First to Bianca's house, then Cheyenne's apartment, and now the school where she teaches. Is there a trap waiting to be sprung?

Is it connected to whoever is melding human tech with O'gúl tech? That's a nasty piece of work. Could the Crown go that low?

Cheyenne and Ember are in a race to complete the last trial and place the coin on the altar. Is this the destiny they want to fulfill?
