Swords of Deception

Three years of imprisonment has Ellemar dangling on brink of insanity. She's thought of nothing but revenge, but the unauthorized use of her powers is what got her into this mess.

Circumstances are looking up, though. Seems the Council of Witches have realized they have a common enemy. The very same Celeana who left Ellemar for dead slaughtered everyone aboard a royal ship, and has been a fugitive for several years.

The Council sees a golden opportunity in vengeful Ellemar, enticing her with freedom in exchange for tracking down the elusive Celeana.

How could she possibly say no? Her fantasy of retribution is within her grasp, and she'll walk free at the end of it. It's all she's wanted over these long, dark years. The council is even willing to bend their precious rules about murder.

But right away, things aren't adding up. Clues that Celeana's horrific act might have been justified lead Ellemar down a disturbing path, leaving her wondering if she's chasing the wrong enemy. This is way more than she signed up for, but turning a blind eye gets harder the more she finds, confronting her with an impossible choice.

Collect her freedom, or save the kingdom?
