Synopsis
The fourth and concluding novel in the quartet picks up some months after the events of the previous book, as a long-imprisoned Jinn breaks free and begins wreaking havoc across the Empire. At the same time, the ruthless Commandant Keris Veturia has declared herself Empress and moves to hunt down anyone who defies her new rule, throwing the Empire into further chaos. Laia, Elias and Helene, their fates already deeply entangled from earlier books, must each find a way to respond to this new threat to the realm, drawing together the political, supernatural and personal conflicts that have driven the series from its start.
