As tensions escalate, Eva is forced to turn to a fey instructor of mythic proportions and a mysterious and handsome khimaer prince for help in growing her magick into something to fear. When Eva is attacked by an assassin just weeks before the battle with her sister, she discovers there is more to the attempt on her life than meets the eye-and it isn't just her sister who wants to see her dead. Living in Raina's long and dark shadow, Eva must now face her older sister, Isa, in a battle to the death if she hopes to ascend to the Ivory Throne-because in the Queendom of Myre only the strongest, most ruthless rulers survive. Its last known practitioner was Queen Raina, who toppled the native khimaer royalty and massacred thousands, including her own sister, eight generations ago, thus beginning the Rival Heir tradition. Sixteen-year-old Eva is a princess, born with the magick of blood and marrow-a dark and terrible magick that hasn't been seen for generations in the vibrant but fractured country of Myre.

With the two princesses on the run, the Queendom of Myre is on the brink of a revolution. This perhaps provides an opening for a truce and a more hopeful future for both the sisters and the queendom, if only Isa would see reason and give up the battle for the throne. Since the Entwining ceremony, Eva's and Isa's lives have been bonded, and each can only die by the other's hand. Despite their history, Eva is convinced that to survive the growing unrest in the queendom, she and her sister must make peace. Princess Isa is a difficult, unremorseful captive, and Eva knows better than to trust her sister, but she wants to. Along with Aketo, a small contingent of guards, and the sister she could not kill, Eva flees Ternain in hopes of finding friends and allies to the north-not to mention Baccha-to help her decide what to do next. Now on the run, Eva is desperate for answers about her transformation and her true heritage.
In this sequel to A River of Royal Blood, Eva and Isa must find a way to work together if they want to save their queendom in the thrilling conclusion to this royal fantasy duology.
