Summary "As night fell, something stirred the darkness. Flashes of crimson uniform cut the smothering black of the woods as solders tore over the dead leaf matter, hacking their way through the web of forest. The prisoner ran. When Lowell Sencha finds the strange girl lying as if dead on the riverbank, he is startled to find that she is like them: waer. Human, but able to assume the form of a wolf. The soldiers descend on the village with fire and sword, searching for her. Lowell and Lycaea are among the few to escape. Now they must find their way to the city of Luthan. Their mission is to bring down Daeman Leldh, the deranged tyrant whose fantasies of blood purity threaten them all. And they will need help that only Lycaea's former comrades in Luthan can give. If she can persuade them not to kill her."--Back cover
