Stripped of identity when the Northlands fell to Lord Saduk’s brutal forces, she became a child-refugee in Canwyrrie, her dark hair and skin serving as a reminder that she once belonged to another land. Although her greatest dream is to become a warrior, the constraints of her youth and gender clash with the dictates of Canwyrrie’s rigid traditions, thwarting her desire. But when war breaks out, her adopted country is in dire need of the gift the Songmaker has placed in her heart. Now tasked with responsibility beyond her imagining, Aidriana must confront the truth of who she is-at the risk of losing everything she treasures and everyone she holds dear.
