She once saved a kingdom with her friends. Now she must do it alone.
The nefarious King Davin has escaped captivity, bent on covering up his atrocious misdeeds by declaring Gemma Calvertson and her friends enemies of the state.
Gemma is unable to publish her manuscript about Aepistelle's true history, and her friends have problems of their own. Marzele loses faith in his god, driving him to join a cult that employs dark sorcery for vengeance. A new vision gives Denny insight into the location of his parents and their impending deaths, and Arnem insists on aiding the rescue mission with the Royal Mystic Committee in pursuit.
When a vigilante journalist promises to help Gemma get her story out, she worries that this new companion can't be trusted. If she rejects him, Davin will resume his rule unopposed, and Gemma's family and friends will never be free. Gemma and her crew were strong together, but now their paths must diverge, and Gemma must put her life into this stranger's hands.
From a prison break to a train heist, The Isle of Abandonment takes Gemma and her friends on their most difficult journeys yet. And this time, they don't have each other for support.
