Bestselling author Jennifer Estep returns to her Crown of Shards world with an all-new trilogy and a bold new heroine who protects her kingdom from magic, murder, and mayhem by moonlighting as a spy.

But her carefully crafted persona is just an act to hide the fact that Gemma is a powerful mind magier—and a spy.
