"Sturdy characterization and gripping suspense. . . .A tale of royal treason, murder, and magic". -- Publishers Weekly
With the death of her father, King Ambrose, Princess Malinda takes upon herself the duty of protecting the kingdom of Chivial's rightful heir, her infant brother, Amby. When Malinda comes under suspicion of crimes against the realm, only the magically bonded King's Blades can protect herDif they believe in her innocence. Though not dependent on previous books in the series (The Gilded Chain, Lord of the Fire Lands), this tale of swashbuckling adventure belongs in most fantasy collections.
