No longer a slave, Alanna’s daughter is now spying as part
of an underground rebellion against the colonial rulers of
the Copper Isles. The people in the rebellion believe that
a prophecy in which a new queen will rise up to take the
throne is about to be realized. Aly is busy keeping the
potential teenage queen and her younger siblings safe,
while also keeping her in the dark about her future. But
Aly, who is usually adept at anticipating danger and
changes, is in for a few nasty surprises.
