An ancient secret is about to be revealed... The fugitive who calls herself Tahquil has at last discovered the truth. She is being hunted down because of the secret she alone knows. However her mind is still clouded by a potent spell called the Bitterbynde, and she is also dying from a strange wasting disease, whose cure is elusive... Disaster strikes and she finds herself in Evernight - at the fortress of the Raven Prince himself.
