Nirel hides her healing magic from everyone except her family. If anyone discovers her secret, she'll be forced to serve as the king's healer—an honor most healers do not survive. When soldiers invade her village and fatally wound her brother, she must decide between keeping her secret or saving him. The soldier leading the invasion remembers her but can't recall how. Having witnessed her power, he must bring her to the king or forfeit his life. Once she reaches the capital, the seer sets his plans in motion to secure his future and her hand.

Nirel and Jase escape, but arrive in the past injured and far from their destination. A new mission emerges: rescue the prince from the assassination that began the war. However, the Goddess of Time is silent, leaving them without guidance when they need it the most. In the present, Corvin fears the worst when he cannot locate Nirel, not even with the assistance of forbidden magic.
