After the events of the Fourth Trial, Martial soldiers hunt
the two fugitives as they flee the city of Serra and
undertake a perilous journey through the heart of the Empire.
Laia is determined to break into Kauf—the Empire’s most
secure and dangerous prison—to save her brother, who is the
key to the Scholars' survival. And Elias is determined to
help Laia succeed, even if it means giving up his last
chance at freedom.
But dark forces, human and otherworldly, work against Laia
and Elias. The pair must fight every step of the way to
outsmart their enemies: the bloodthirsty Emperor Marcus, the
merciless Commandant, the sadistic Warden of Kauf, and, most
heartbreaking of all, Helene—Elias’s former friend and the
Empire’s newest Blood Shrike.
Bound to Marcus's will, Helene faces a torturous mission of
her own—one that might destroy her: find the traitor Elias
Veturius and the Scholar slave who helped him escape...and
kill them both.
