To complicate matters, the Lord of Nightshade has marked her, and the marks on her body are changing again. It's an uneasy alliance between Kaylin and Severn. He's teamed her with a Dragon, Tiamaris, and Severn, who's transferred from the Wolves. But the killings have started again, closer together this time, and the Hawklord has put her on the case. She practices her healing magic in secret and under the protection of the Hawklord, a rare magic that would see her sent to the Emperor if it were discovered. Now, seven years later, her name has changed to Kaylin and she's a member of the Hawks, one of the three Lords of Law of the city of Elantra. Thirty-eight children are found murdered with markings like hers carved into their skin - and she knew all of them - until they suddenly stopped the same day she ran away from the fiefs, from Severn, from the horror of what she'd seen. Then one day strange markings appeared on her arms and legs, and the killings began. Elianne was an orphaned child of the fiefs, scraping out a living in the fiefdom of Nightshade with an older boy, Severn, and two other little girls.
