When too many things fall apart, holding a kingdom together feels futile.

When the queen is abducted, it's not just a matter of political panic that consumes the people. For Ronin and Adeline, this is personal. Though they know they could be next on the list of people who are disappearing, they are determined to leave the safety of the castle to find their missing queen.

Though Adeline isn't ready for battle yet, she ambles off without Ronin by her side. Her plan is to find the queen she loves, no matter the cost. With Ronin left behind and too many suspects to sift through, Adeline doesn't know if she should be hunting down a crazed stranger, or if the threat is coming from someone she trusts.
