Sogolon takes centre stage and gives her own account of what happened to the mysterious boy who disappeared, and how she plotted and fought, triumphed and failed as she looked for him. Also, learn of a century-long feud - seen through the eyes of a 177-year-old witch - that Sogolon had with the Aesi, chancellor to the king. It is said that Aesi works so closely with the king that together they are like the eight limbs of one spider. Aesi's power is considerable - and deadly. It takes brains and courage to challenge him, which Sogolon does for reasons of her own.
