Jewel has spent his entire life making himself as small and invisible as possible. His healing magic is rare, powerful and dangerous. If he could, he'd spend his days caring for wounded animals or those unable to afford a physician. His older brother, the crown prince, has a far different use in mind for Jewel's powers, however. He would much rather Jewel use his magic to extract information from captures spies, or simply torment whoever Henry chooses.
Briar is here to rob the royal treasury. The youngest prince was little more than a mark, but she's grown fond of Jewel's gentle nature. She doesn't have the heart to tell him that she's nowhere near as good as he believes.
When tragedy strikes and Henry makes his move, Jewel will finally have to face his brother, or lose himself forever.
