Summary: CAPTIVE PRINCE meets INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE in this story about the fine line between hatred and obsession "He looked newly born, as if the ocean spat him out of its womb, naked and wet, a creature made of waves and tides, of liquid and darkness, something that would slip through his fingers as soon as he tried to grasp it.” A decade ago, Vindt’s homeland was overthrown with the help of Singers and their song magic. Forced into their service, Vindt has been struggling for freedom ever since. His goal seems within reach when the Singer he’s bound to is unexpectedly killed. Instead, he gains a new master: the sly and enigmatic Asche. Coincidence? Maybe not. Singers suffer from a terrible curse, and Vindt might hold the key to ending it, if that’s what Asche is after. The Singer’s brethren claim Asche's on a quest for power and are determined to bring him down. Soon, Vindt finds himself the target of scheming Singers, attacking demons, and another unexpected opponent: his wayward feelings for someone he’s supposed to hate. When Asche's enemies offer Vindt freedom in exchange for delivering Asche to his death, Vindt has to make a choice.
