Marit was pretty sure she had been murdered. She vividly recalled the assassin's dagger but then she woke alone, sprawled on a Guardian altar, with more questions than answers. The Guardians once ruled the Hundred, but disappeared in ages past, leaving reeves to manage the peace. But Marit finds this peace shattered as an army ravages the land. It's leaders walk in shadow, wearing the cloaks of lost Guardians. As she searches for meanings in a changed world, Marit finds her old love Joss and the Outlander Anji struggling to maintain order.
