But her sorceress mother has kept her and her triplet siblings hidden from the war for the Raven Throne that rages in their kingdom, where heir after heir has been killed.
But the war comes to them when the eldest triplet is named the next heir. Knowing this means certain death, Cordelia's mother hid the truth about which child is oldest. And when her family is captured, it's up to Cordelia to use her powers to keep her siblings hidden and to discover the truth about the Raven Heir—before it's too late.
