Princess and heir to the throne of Thorvaldor, Nalia's led a
privileged life at court. But everything changes when it's
revealed, just after her sixteenth birthday, that she is a
false princess, a stand-in for the real Nalia, who has been
hidden away for her protection. Cast out with little more
than the clothes on her back, the girl now called Sinda must
leave behind the city of Vivaskari, her best friend,
Keirnan, and the only life she's ever known. Sinda is sent to live with her only surviving relative, an
aunt who is a dyer in a distant village. She is a cold,
scornful woman with little patience for her newfound niece,
and Sinda proves inept at even the simplest tasks. But when
Sinda discovers that magic runs through her veins -
long-suppressed, dangerous magic that she must learn to
control - she realizes that she can never learn to be a
simple village girl. Returning to Vivaskari for answers, Sinda finds her purpose
as a wizard scribe, rediscovers the boy who saw her all
along, and uncovers a secret that could change the course of
Thorvaldor's history, forever.
