Beyond it waits a choice that could heal two realms—or break them both. In the far north, a raven prince rules a lightless stronghold where weather, stone, and fate obey his will. Allies falter. Oaths tighten. And a love tempered in peril must face its hardest truth. To survive, she must remember who she was, dare who she is, and decide who she will become—before Evernight closes over all.

When the corrupt Senators of Vitus send soldiers to destroy the village of Plockton and enslave the young men, 18-year-old Cecilia, the lone survivor, makes the bold decision to rescue her brothers. Armed with little more than her wit and her great ancestor’s Freedom Tree pendant, she sets off along the trail left by the soldiers only to be confronted by the assassin Amalardh, a servant of Vitus sent to kill the bearer of a symbol - the same symbol around her neck.

Though Imrhien's memory is clouded by sorcery, she must take vital news to the King-Emperor of Caermelor. She hopes that there she may also find Thorn, the fearless ranger who has won her heart.

She soon discovers that the King and his rangers have departed to battle the unseelie hordes which have suddenly declared war against mortals.

And, something terrible and immense is growing in the south. The life Cecilia fought for - the city, the freedom, the family - is slipping away as an old threat returns with a full force.
