Chaos followed the untimely end of Princess Kylee's marriage to Prince Maju. Although Queen Miyako is too worried about her missing daughter's safety to blame her, she has no problem blaming Taren Platinum. When a recording device containing diary entries is found in the princess's room, the queen begins to question if she's been wrong the whole time.
Jael wants nothing more than to return to her family but Taren gave her an assignment to take care of the kids, and she won't let him down. When she runs into an enemy intent on avenging their fallen leader, they are caught in the crossfire.
Dr. Ezabrae Mortimer has lived peacefully among the Mirelings for years despite being human. Then she's assigned a new patient: the fugitive Taren Platinum. As she seeks to discover the truth about him, she uncovers secrets from her own past. Secrets that make her doubt her very humanity. Taren may be the only person who can give her answers—the only problem is he's scheduled to be executed.
