Song continues her quest to reunite with Altain—if he is still alive. However, Captain Darian is proving to be more elusive than our heroine had anticipated. In this second book of the All That Glitters series, Song learns that self-preservation and cruelty are separated by a blurred line—a line she will have to cross in order to survive in the cutthroat world of piracy. But first, she and the crew of The Stars' Bounty must free Captain Dashaelan from the Tamminpring jail…or see him hang.
