"Promise me. Look into my eyes and promise me that if it comes to it, you will stay silent and let me die." What makes a person evil? Is it the absence of love? A lack of alternatives? Is cruelty a skill that can be taught? Or is it simply in our genes? At fifteen, Willow battles against the very blood coursing through her veins for the sake of family and freedom. But still, the Noble's oppression grows stronger, and when the Resistance fails her, she embarks on a rescue mission of her own.
