Did Vale really have a romantic past with Aeron? And what is hiding behind Alys’ cold demeanor?

The heirs have agreed to find Quinn’s attacker and decode the tome’s ominous prophecy together, but their new alliance is tested at every corner as they enter the underground tunnels. Hickory’s home in the Kobold city is an overwhelming maze of mystery, pixie dust machinery, and mayhem—and nothing compares with the challenge that awaits them in the next death-defying trial.
