Description
Penny Barclay thought she could trust those closest to her, until their betrayal burned down her entire world.
Her mother had been a paragon of virtue, a woman of sense and ingenuity. Lou had been Penny's friend, her confidante, her mentor. But both of them had kept dangerous secrets.
Now, Penny is trapped in the capital with the information Prince Aiden, Lord of the Underworld and the Crown's spymaster, needs. With her evidence, they could finally name The Cartographer and stop the rebellion running rampant through their kingdom. Only there's one problem: Aiden is avoiding her, and she can't afford to let him. If she can't make him face her, the very kingdom may be redrawn under The Cartographer's hand.
Prince Aiden can still hear Penelope's screams in his dreams, see the flames devour Barclay Manor until it was nothing but ashes, as guilt dogs his every move. But with a murderer on the loose in the capital, he can't risk letting his feelings cloud his judgement, even if it means keeping Penelope Barclay as far from him as possible.
With Penelope now trapped in the capital, Aiden has to do whatever he can to make the city safe-even if that means running from the mage girl with cinnamon hair and emerald eyes.
Secrets come to light as Penny's journey continues in the next installment of The Cartographer's War. The fight against The Cartographer is only getting started. Perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer, Holly Black, and Kristin Cashore.
