Podmanivý, kvetmi a tieňmi nabitý druhý diel série Lightlark od Alex Aster, ktorý okamžite vystrelil na vrchol rebríčka New York Times a Wall Street Journal. Isla Crownová si získala srdcia dvoch najmocnejších vládcov a zlomila kliatby, ktoré dlhých päť storočí sužovali šesť ríš. Pôvod jej vlastnej moci však pozná málokto. Po zdrvujúcej zrade Isla prahne po pokoji, preto sa ukrýva vo svojej izbe v paláci namiesto toho, aby sa chopila svojich povinností vládkyne dvoch ríš a pomohla im získať späť to, čo kliatbami stratili – skutočný domov so všetkým, čo k tomu patrí. Čo je však ešte horšie, napriek svojim schopnostiam z troch ríš stále nie je v bezpečí. Nebezpečenstvo na ňu číha na každom ostrove a dokonca aj medzi múrmi jej vlastnej izby ju môžu mátať tiene. Keď sa na Lightlark odrazu rúti neodvratná smrť a na povrch sa predierajú tajomstvá minulosti, Isla musí postaviť na misky váh zodpovednosť za svoj ľud a rozmary toho najnebezpečnejšieho zradcu – svojho srdca. Prepracovaný svet Alex Aster sa po strhujúcom vyvrcholení Storočnice ešte viac rozrastá, odhaľuje Isline spomienky na minulosť a rozhodovanie o budúcnosti medzi dvoma rôznymi osudmi.
