Solei is a healer who struggles to grieve her brother—whose empty casket remains a dark reminder of the devastation war brings. Captured and enslaved by foreign enemies, she fakes mutism and presents an invisible face, while all the time plotting her escape. But the enemy has eyes and ears everywhere and as she meets the emperor, all her self-protective tactics become useless, when he sees through her mask. She can’t escape. She can’t hide. He noticed her, and the more he learns, the more he wants.

But she could never... not with the man responsible for her brother’s death.

She survived one war as a captive, but can she survive the war in her heart?
