She Hears All...
Mishka Silverfloe, the barely legitimized daughter of High King Torvin, knows all about complicated family dynamics. Her father had to deny her existence for most of her life to save her from a tyrant king, her mother sold her into service to a minor deity for political advantage, her fiancé, Kindean Onryn, turned against his family in a bitter war that saw Mishka's childhood friend, Killean, become her sworn enemy.
The war is over now, but the dust has not settled. Working as the Mistress of Whispers, King Torvin's best spy, Mishka uses her unusual magical powers to hunt down dissidents intent on plunging the Land of Three Rivers back into war. After surviving a cave in, she discovers a plot that puts her on the trail of the elusive, and threatening, Sapphire. A mysterious insurgent who might prove to be even more deadly than the infamous Killean Onryn himself. Especially when, on the eve of her wedding, Mishka discovers that Sapphire plans to use the mind controlling relic, Gendril's Flute, to strike directly at her complicated and sundered family.
As old enemies become new friends and even the feuding Onryn brothers work together against the threat Sapphire poses, Mishka must use all her magic and her formidably sharp wit, to foil multiple plots in time to make it down the aisle. But can she catch the right whispers and hunt down their source before Sapphire strikes?
