When Cliana Goddan's tutor deems her a master healer, relief washes through her like a flood.

But before leaving for Alamada Palace, she receives an unexpected gift: a grimoire filled with the secrets of bloodcraft--an ancient, forbidden magic.
At first, Cliana puts the book from her mind. Bloodcraft may grant supernatural power over the body, but those who wield it often lose themselves to madness, and Cliana has no interest in tempting such a fate. That is, until her future at imperial court hinges upon healing an incurable affliction . . .
Though she forswears further use of magic, Cliana's hand is forced when a rival house wages war against the imperial family....
