Book 3 synopsis contains spoilers for the preceding books.
The Darkling rules from his shadow throne while a weakened Alina recovers under the dubious protection of the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Her hopes rest on the magic of a long-vanished ancient creature and the possibility that an outlaw prince still survives.
As allies and enemies race toward war, a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the remnants of a once-great magical army must face a rising tide of darkness. To save her country, Alina must claim the firebird’s power, but doing so may be her ruin.
