In the islands the Sylannians call home, the king still has plans for the barbarians and his sister. Jaclyn dances on a knife edge, as she desperately tries to save her house without bringing destruction down on the kingdom.As each group formulates its strategies, it is the Unwanted who must navigate their way through it all. With attacks threatened on all fronts, as powerful as the Unwanted are, they can only be in one place at once. And the most insidious enemy might be one of their own.
