On my own wedding day, I learned that my whole life consists of a carefully woven web of lies. Mom hid a terrible secret for many years. I am the daughter of a war criminal and traitor, whose family should be forgotten. But fate is insidious, and instead of the marriage bed, I ended up at Aveline Academy. The echo of an old secret slides through the arches of the ancient castle, and death is on my heels. The love and hatred of several generations are intertwined in a fiery dance, and only I have the power to extinguish the raging flame.
