In this gripping sequel to The Crystal Key, Elsa Rowan-a determined young woman once bound to the quiet life of a woodcutter's daughter-finds herself celebrated as a hero. With the sinister sorcerer Morath vanquished and the eternal winter lifted, spring blossoms across Starlight Vale for the first time in generations. But freedom comes at a price, and Elsa's connection to the mysterious Crystal Key leaves her with haunting questions and a chilling void where its power once coursed. As Elsa begins to rebuild her life, whispers of an ancient prophecy reach her ears-one tied to the Key's lingering power and a threat far greater than Morath. Morvain.
