For Annice was twice guilty of treason, first for imperiling the order of succession by becoming pregnant, and second for aiding the fat. her of her unborn child, the Duc of Ohrid, to escape the palace dungeons and the sentence of death hanging over his head. Now the fugitives' only hope lay in tracking down and bringing to justice the enemy who'd masterminded the Duc's downfall, a . dang e rou s foe who had found a way to tie lies and truths together into a knot even the most powerful of Bardic spells could not unravel..."
