title: Warning Signs
author: Thompson, Kendi
description: Phase two of The Questioning has begun, and Catriona is in the Shadow Temple deep within the walls of the Fortress of Shadows. Ruarc, her cunning host and captor, spins a web of deceit, and Cat finds herself thrown in the middle of her greatest challenge. She hides her immortality behind human flesh while navigating her way through Ruarc’s twisted version of The Questioning, only to discover the trials call upon incredible strength. The strange, illusive energy within the Fortress makes it difficult for Heron to assist her, and too much is at stake. With each obstacle, Cat struggles to understand what is real, and what is not. She must protect herself while discovering it is much harder to pretend to be mortal and that maybe she is not fooling anyone but herself.
