Divided loyalties test Inez Garza. The infamous incident at the Academy of Natural Studies has forced her to work for the King's Men while continuing to serve the hidden market. Supporting Birthright furthers the cause of Magical Return, but the cost may be the fall of the royal house and losing Zavier forever. And the strongest pull of all is her growing and erratic magic, which demands everything and offers only destruction in return. Inez must decide where her loyalties lie—saving Canto or saving herself.
