Her betrothed, Prince Welim Farrin of Rihan, is her clearest hope for alliance. Yet Rihan's court is a nest of secrets, and its King plays a dangerous game with his sons' future.
As whispers of succession threaten the balance of power, and an ambitious vizier moves in the shadows, Opheya finds herself caught between loyalty, love, and survival.
War is coming.
And to win it, Opheya will have to learn the true Price of Power.
