"When you find the truth, you may find that you cannot control its
power." Would you tell the truth if it meant losing your job? Would
you tell the truth if it meant challenging your government? Would
you tell the truth if it meant a death sentence? What if you had to
decide today? Sixteen-year-old Anne Quinn longs for adventure, but
is an apprentice Illuminatrix to the King of Deneresh for whom she
keeps official records. Called "Faeiries' Child" by the Grandmother
who trained her in the skills of writing and languages, Anne knows
nothing of her parents and vows that one day she will uncover the
truth of her past. Deneresh is on the brink of war, and in a time
when most are illiterate, Anne's skills are highly prized. She
quickly becomes known for her brilliant work - and notorious for
checking facts. Soon the King chooses her to illuminate the
kingdom's divinely ordained history for all to see. But Anne's
research uncovers a dark mystery. As she searches for clues, Anne
joins the Truth Seekers, a secret society organized to discover a
mythical race known as "the Lost Children" who may hold the key to
the real history of Deneresh and also to Anne's past. Her journey
will test her courage and trust in herself. Uncovering what is true
means risking the unthinkable, even facing betrayal and death.
After Anne is accused of treason, can she save herself from a
traitor's end?
