While evidence is gathered, and the land of Delain mourns, Flagg the King's magi
cian, unscrupulous, greedy and powerful, plots. Soon the King's elder son, Peter
, is imprisoned in the needle, the top of a high tower, for his father's murder.
And Thomas inherits the throne.
Only Peter knows the truth of his innocence,
and the true evil that is Flagg. Only Peter can save Delain from the horror the
magician has in store. He has a plan, but it is rife with danger.
