She must learn the magic she fears from a man she cannot trust.
The second book in the award-winning Road to Freedom trilogy.
I look forward to the day you return to me.
Issanka is a casteless runaway amongst pirates, using her powers over light and sound to aid the ship-stealers. But even in exile, she can't forget Ilian - a powerful and enigmatic figure who could manipulate minds and conceal his identity.
When an old ally pleads for her return to the city of Ewele - the city she swore she'd never go back to - Issanka is torn. But the opportunity to learn more about her powers proves too tempting to ignore.
Now, Issanka must learn from her old enemy - and she must figure out what his plans are for Ewele before war swallows them all.
