Lar has one week until the authorities take him away and charge him with treason. Aline's only hope for survival is to stay with Lar's brother, Jeraud, but it's a fruitless hope. The loving family of Lar's youth has disappeared, replaced by animosity, prejudice, and betrayal. If Lar and Aline thought surviving on a Mwalgi spaceship was impossible, now they face a planet deemed uninhabitable to humans whose authorities would see Lar dead, and a populace who would drain Aline's CSF without mercy.

As one of the emperor's many sons, Fourteen hopes to be chosen as his father's successor despite Master Chid Den's cautions. When magic and science combine to threaten Fourteen's life, it's too late to escape. He and Den must put their trust in Mariessa, a small sixteen-year-old girl with unusual abilities. As Den holds to his secrets, Mariessa continues to distrust, and Fourteen's pride brings contention, their survival depends on learning to believe in one another. And if the emperor's fear of their success is any indication, their efforts could affect more lives than their own.
