One month has passed since Valor broke her twin sister Sasha out of the notorious prison Tyur'ma, but the girl who put her there to begin with--Princess Anastasia--has gone missing. The queen, desperate to find her daughter, asks Valor to track Anastasia down and bring her home. But just as Valor reunites with her loyal band of friends from Tyur'ma to begin the mission, the queen also disappears. If Valor can't restore order to the kingdom, it could mean that her new friends will be sent back to Tyur'ma . . . and her family torn apart. Once again, she will need to rely on people she can't quite trust, as well as her own instincts, to protect the people she holds dear. This thrilling sequel to the buzzy Prisoner of Ice and Snow is just as unputdownable as its predecessor, sweeping readers back into the vivid world of unforgettable protagonist Valor and her home of Demidova.
