Kolima hoped that the restoration of the kingdom would bring prosperity and peace to Hurruke, after the long years of Kitanite rule. Unfortunately her husband, the king, embarks on a path toward despotism, until he is murdered by a usurper. To avoid being forced into marriage to the murderer, she goes into hiding inside the palace, now occupied by her enemies. She is caught while trying to escape, and consents to the marriage in order to ensure the safety of her four year old son. Then her real challenges begin. First, she is banished on suspicion of murdering her husband on their wedding night, and forced to leave her son behind. Then her caravan to Mitanni is captured by robbers, and she is given the choice of submitting to rape or being sold as a brothel slave. Finally, while the fate of two kingdoms hangs in the balance, she must decide whether to risk a second chance at love when it might mean never seeing her son again. Revisiting the fascinating world of Lost Children, this novel can be read as either a sequel or a standalone.
