Deep within Oldfaire, among crumbling ruins of the House of Iomene, Amelia finds a strange relic that attunes her to the Empress herself! Iomene strikes an enticing deal: she’ll answer Amelia’s questions in exchange for her unwavering devotion.

It’ll take some tricky maneuvering to slip one past her Circle, especially when stern Javri’s set on ousting Amelia for her troublemaking. But as she starts to prove herself to Empress Iomene, Amelia realizes great power—and darkness—hides inside the mysterious artifact. Though the young investigator might be gaining the Empress’ trust, is that trust mutual?”
