You can't outrun the past

The night his father died, everything changed for Prince Daren. Forced to flee and leave behind his former life after being accused and found guilty of treason and conspiracy against the throne, he's determined to forget his past and start anew.

Now as Kyr Hallas, he longs for a normal life while staying one step ahead of those who might hunt him. Working as a mercenary who sells his sword to the highest bidder, he's always kept everyone at arm's length to protect them from his secrets.

But his past won't let him go. Elessa, First Queen's Blade, seeks to clear his name and restore him to the throne. She races against the Queen, who wants to find Daren for her own ends. War is coming to Alaresti, and Daren must choose between the past he abandoned and the future he dreams of.

Will he let his kingdom fall, or will he rise to become the hero they need?
