As the Prince's search for new recruits comes up cold, everyone is stretched to the limits of their strength. Then a face from Clara's past shows up in the library: Danny, her childhood sweetheart. He's determined to break her Obligation once and for all and bring her safely home. But the road he must travel to win Clara's freedom is far more dangerous than he could ever anticipate.
