Nar may have passed her Test of Bravery, but the danger is just starting. After completing the first half of her pirate training at Islanda Nylar, Nar should be relieved that a dangerous enemy is dead and another is subdued. But of course it's not that simple, for another, even more dangerous foe lives. And Nar's deathly magic just might be the key to the most powerful and dangerous treasure in the world. Whoever gains it will have control over the land and seas. So much for slipping away and controlling her own destiny. Kale's not helping with that decision, either. His mixed signals to Nar are beyond frustrating, and she may not escape without leaving everything and everyone she cares about. If she stays, Nar may have to learn about her own past, which she'd rather leave undiscovered... Can Nar stop the enslavement of the world, and sacrifice everything she holds dear to do it?

Nar has spent her seventeen years as an orphan slave with a secret: she has the touch of death. Scarred by her lack of control and accidental murders, Nar won’t dare make friends or reveal the truth to anyone. Only her dreams of escape keep her going. Instead, she gets kidnapped by a handsome pirate: Captain Kallen Shoskan, the son of the pirate king. And upon seeing her talents, he orders her to Islanda Nylar, where former slaves and runaways train for a life of sailing and plundering. It looks like freedom. It sounds like freedom. But Kallen is her personal tutor and trainer, in charge of her progress. Nar is the first recruit with deathly magic in centuries. But becoming a pirate will mean delivering more death, and Nar’s had enough of that. Even if Kallen is witty, protective, and bears his own tormented past. But if she fails her training, a savage captain will make her worse than a slave. To avoid a horrific fate, she’ll need to trust Kallen, pass her tests, and face her own darkness.

It has an optimistic view of the potential of children to surprise us with their language and emphasises that literacy is for life, not just for an hour.
