The council is dead. Bellaton has fallen. Reeling from the coronation and its deadly aftermath, Ana has little time to recover. She is now the sole surviving member of the council and the number one suspect. Bellaton has never been more dangerous. As the Seven families vie to fill their vacant council seats, rebel forces stir in the capital streets . . . and below them. Is peace still possible? How far will Ana go to save herself, her friends, and the world she's grown to love?

Even if Ana had every name, her path would be difficult. The guilty are powerful, protected, and dangerous. But Ana only has three of the names she needs. In order to claim the rest, she must grant Lady Jacobs three favors. In doing so, Ana will descend deeper into the dark, glittering world of the Royal City and further away from the protective walls of the Academy. Who will win this game of shadows and crowns?

Der Direktor des Balletts bindet die Mädchen durch einen dunklen Fluch an sich, er kontrolliert jede ihrer Bewegungen. Die einzigen Momente, in denen Emberlyn das Tanzen noch genießen kann, sind, wenn sie in den Armen ihres Tanzpartners liegt, einer schattenhaften Gestalt, die nur für wenige Minuten auf der Bühne Form annimmt.
