Clio can see the future, but what she doesn't know about her past could destroy her.
It's been a year since Clio made her sacrifice to the Deities and embraced her destiny as the Oracle to save her people.
The only family she has left is a brother who wants her dead.
And the man who once loved her, now hates her.
All she can do is try to forget about Riece, the enemy commander whose heart she broke to save his life, as she serves the Deities in a war against the Untouched. To add to her problems, she must pose as King Derik's mistress to conceal her forbidden powers.
When Riece unexpectedly returns to Sheehan with a beautiful new ally, Clio knows she must put him out of her mind once and for all. But when she is thrust into battle against a mysterious Untouched warrior with otherworldly power, she must team up with the man she still loves but can never be with and finally confront the questions about her origin-questions with answers that Clio may not be prepared to face.
