When Jace's daughter goes missing, seven years of peace are shattered.

Once a reluctant disciple, Jace Kenrick is now leader, father, and the world's most powerful mage. He must rally priests, mages, and soldiers against an enemy he cannot see, fight against forces he cannot fathom, and search for a daughter whose prison he cannot find.

The Power?once a curse, now a gift?is twisting into something darker. Shadows stir. The dead walk. Loyalties and alliances built over years begin to splinter.

To save his daughter and preserve the world, Jace must fully embrace the mantle of leadership and summon all the strength of faith and magic at his command. But with the Power failing, relationships fraying, and an evil of unimaginable design advancing, Jace can only pray to Arn it will be enough and that he can bring his little girl home.
