New York Times bestselling author Michelle Sagara returns to the city of Elantra with a thrilling tale rife with ancient magic, assassination attempts and political intrigue. Private Kaylin Neya already has Dragons and Barrani as roommates. Adding one injured, flightless Aerian to her household should be trivial.

But when a walk to the Halls of Law becomes a street-shattering magical assassination attempt on the sergeant, Kaylin discovers that it's not the guest who's going to be the problem: it's all of the people who suddenly want Moran dar Carafel dead. And though Moran refuses to tell her why she's being targeted, Kaylin is determined to discover her secret and protect her at all costs—even if keeping Moran safe means dealing with Aerian politics, angry dragons and something far more sinister.

The leader of the Aerians is dying. Moran is the last descendant of her race's oldest and most distinguished bloodline. Only she can take her family's place in the Caste Court. But for Moran, this noble position seems more like a prison sentence than an honor. Fellow Hawk Kaylin Neya understands Moran's commitment to protecting the citizens of Elantra, a city beset by dangers from without and within. And she knows exactly how it feels to be thrust into Elantra's politics. So she becomes Moran's guide through a treacherous realm in which even the fiercest loyalties are tested, and things are seldom as they seem.
