Must Kattanan sacrifice his song to win his kingdom, and the woman he loves?
When his uncle murders his family, only Prince Kattanan is left alive . . .at a terrible cost. Mutilated and trained as a singer, Kattanan travels from patron to patron until he finds himself once more very close to home. Given as a courtship gift to Princess Melisande, Kattanan feels the stirring of emotions long denied him. But her fiancé has other plans--and the means to carry them out.
Dark magic threatens both of their kingdoms. With the aid of a mysterious wizard, a disgraced prince, and the magic-breaker who once betrayed him, Kattanan must fight for the crown he never wanted and the love he never imagined he could feel.
