About to be execute for murder, Yelena is offered a
reprieve. She'll eat the best meals, have rooms in the
palace, and risk assassination by anyone trying to kill the
Commander of Ixia. And so Yelena chooses to become a food
taster. But the chief of security, leaving nothing to
chance, deliberately feeds her Butterfly's Dust, and only
by appearing for her daily antidote will she delay an
agonizing death from the poison. As Yelena tries to escape
her dilemma, disasters keep mounting. Rebels plot to seize
Ixia and she develops magical powers she can't control. Her
life’s at stake again and choices must be made. But this
time the outcomes aren’t so clear!
