A second dragon has woken, and the man now bonded to it has no idea what he's actually signed up for. Wren Ashe does - and she's the only one who can help him survive it.
With House Vaelor's name finally, formally cleared, the war Wren never asked to start stops answering to anyone's attempts to control it. A stolen document threatens to unravel a century of buried lies. Allies bleed for a cause some of them only half believe in. And the betrayal she never saw coming costs her more than she's willing to admit out loud.
Some wars are won with dragons and blades. This one gets decided by who's still standing to tell the truth once it's over.
