Still affected by betrayal and deceit, Alexander Marcase feels his life has lost all connection to truth. Unable to come to terms with his own past, he's determined to discover the reality behind Evan's. What they learn along the way re-shapes their understanding of Keepers and Sha'era, as well as their appreciation for each other. But nothing they've experienced so far can prepare them for what they're about to find.
