À la fin du Sacrifice, Gemme, la fille du Roi des Fey nommé Rugar, épouse le prince insulaire Nicholas afin d'allier les deux peuples dans un semblant de paix et d'entente. Car les Fey n'ont toujours pas réussi à trouver un antidote à l'arme fatale des insulaires : l'eau bénite. Gemme et Nicholas ont désormais un fils. Ce dernier est censé détenir de grands pouvoirs magiques mais Rugar l'a fait kidnapper et remplacer par un golem, créature sans âme qui désespère ses parents. Rugar veut toujours s'emparer de l'île malgré les protestations de sa fille et d'une partie de son peuple. Il pousse plus loin encore ses machinations en assassinant le roi Alexandre, père de Nicholas. Immédiatement, Gemme est mise en cause par Matthias, le nouveau Rocaan, chef des religieux. Celui-ci refuse également l'alliance entre Fey et Insulaires et ne peut supporter l'idée de voir l'héritier de Gemme et de Nicholas prendre à terme le pouvoir. 
Mais Gemme est à nouveau enceinte, d'une fille cette fois, douée des pouvoirs des Métamorphes. Solanda, la Fey qui se transforme en chat, décide de veiller sur l'enfant et de lui apprendre à utiliser ses dons. Hélas, Gemme est victime du terrible complot de Matthias lors de la cérémonie du couronnement de Nicholas. La guerre entre les deux peuples est loin d'être terminée. Nicholas pourra-t-il compter sur ses enfants pour contrer Rugar et remporter une victoire définitive sur ces guerriers et magiciens retors ? 
  
Complot diaboliques, trahisons, magie, les affrontements se poursuivent entre Fey et Insulaires. Une saga sombre et palpitante servie par des personnages aux pouvoirs fascinants.

The answers Captain Jonathon "Coop" Cooper and the crew of the Ivoire seek lie in the Boneyards. But they must wait for Boss and her team to dive it, explore the wrecks, and piece together what happened in that faraway place. Boss loves the challenge. Thousands of ships, centuries of history, all play to her strengths. In her absence, she trusts Coop to defend the Nine Planets Alliance against the Enterran Empire. But an encounter from Coop's recent past shows up to haunt him, an encounter he never told Boss about, an encounter that could threaten her future, his life, and the fragile peace between the Alliance and the Empire. A combination of first-person and third-person narrative and flashback segments makes this a complex and compelling story.
