Before Astarti's mother abandoned her to the deadly ocean tides, she gave her infant daughter a parting gift: a tattoo known as the Griever's Mark, meant to carry her into death. Saved by Belos--long ago exiled by his people, the Earthmakers--Astarti has spent her life using her control of the energy world, known as the Drift, to help Belos gain power throughout the kingdom of Kelda. Though she hates her master, the Leash he has anchored deep within her makes defiance impossible. But when Logan, a handsome Earthmaker with his own reasons to hate Belos, recognizes that Astarti may be more than she seems, she begins to unravel Belos's lies: about her Mark, about her parents, and, most importantly, about her power. These questions, however, lead to one even more chilling: what does Belos really want?
