Noon Onyx is back! In this long-awaited fourth installment, Jill Archer returns readers to the dangerous world of Halja, where demons, angels, and humans coexist in an uneasy state of détente.
Maegester-in-Training Noon Onyx feels like she's done it all - mastered fiery magic, become an adept fighter, learned the law, killed countless demons, and survived having her heart broken by both love and an arrow, but now she'll face her greatest challenge yet...
Far to the north lies an outpost famous for its unrest - Rockthorn Gorge. The town's patron has specifically requested Noon's help. Her assignment? Help the neophyte demon lord build his fiefdom and keep what's his. The problem? Lord Aristos - Noon's new employer - is her erstwhile lover, Ari Carmine, the aforementioned heart breaker. And the number one thing he wants is her.
When Rockthorn Gorge's viaduct is destroyed by Displodo, an enigmatic bomber, killing a dozen settlers and wounding scores more, Noon sets off early to aid in the search and rescue. Ari is listed among the missing and the suspects are legion. But Noon's search is just the beginning. Her journey forces Noon to confront not only those she loves, but also enemies hell-bent on destroying them.
