Selling stories is a deadly business. All Tanwen wants is to claw her way from poverty by becoming Royal Storyteller to the king. But when she lands on the king's most wanted list, she uncovers long-buried secrets that will jeopardize her future . . . and that of the empire.

Tanwen and the Corsyth weavers race to collect the strands of an ancient cure that might save Gryfelle. But Tanwen has a secret—Gryfelle isn’t the only one afflicted by the weaver's curse. The puppet master behind Gareth’s rise to power has designs on Tanwen and the story weavers and will stop at nothing to reclaim the throne. As the fight for Tir consumes the realm, no one can remain innocent.

In this epic conclusion to The Weaver Trilogy, Tanwen and the Corsyth weavers must rescue the queen, but the success of their hunt depends upon an ally no one trusts. The Master has a new target in sight: fragile, trauma-scarred Digwyn, whose unique weaving ability could turn the tide of any war. When the desire for vengeance proves too powerful for Digwyn to resist, Tanwen must face a terrifying truth: the fate of Tir rests in the hands of a volatile, shattered girl.
