Adelais is on the run.
With inquisitors and royal soldiers in pursuit, she flees high into the mountains. But winter is closing in and she cannot hide for ever.
Far to the north, there is a chance of escape. Her homeland has risen in rebellion against Galmandie. If Adelais can evade capture and return, she will be free.
But Galmandie has never been more dangerous.
In every town square, people whisper of a girl who brought down lightning on her enemies.
Rumors of curses and corruption have shattered the king's authority. As the court rides out for a great hunt, ruthless nobles watch for signs of weakness.
Adelais has a storm of power inside her.
If she is caught, she will burn as a witch. But if she learns to control her rune magic, she could be the spark that sets the whole country aflame.
