Long before Latvala became a country, two men fought a bitter battle to claim control of the land. The outcome of their feud fell into the abyss of time, subdued and forgotten in the centuries to follow.
This is the story of a younger generation looking for answers that don't want to be found. Elias Ahtissari is as stubborn as his father, the king, however, and doggedly pursues clues that lead him ever closer to the truth.
It's a truth he could have never imagined.
Along the way, he runs into an old acquaintance, Inari Ascher, who will one day be queen in a neighboring country. He uncovers a plot on Inari's life that splits his attention between one mystery and another and is determined to solve both before time runs out.
