Nesta Archeron has always been proud and hot-headed. Ever since she became a faerie against her will, she has been trying to find a place for herself in a dangerous world ravaged by war. She cannot forget the horrors of the war with Hybern, and she feels that not only is she friendless, but loses the love of her sisters. She gets a chance to unwind with work in the library and daily training under Cassian's supervision. But even this tough warrior may prove powerless in Nesta's fight against her own monsters. It remains to be seen whether he will be able to ignite her desire for love and to accepting a new self... Meanwhile, one of the treacherous queens who returned to the continent during the last war has formed a dangerous new alliance. The Court of the Night must act quickly: unravel the riddles of intrigue, search for ancient artifacts, and bet on... the split Nesta and her new powers, the true nature of which no one yet understands.
