A secret keeps her bound in silence, yet the day her beloved knight goes missing, she must accept that she cannot handle everything herself.Rowan alters Adara’s perception of happiness, showing her that life can be lived inside the shadows. As the Gray Legion vibrato abounds in a life-threatening ensemble, courage and love testify under the darkest threat and every choice is put on the line.
