But Braya is secretly sceptical about the rhetoric the Sect spews. She wants more than a life of service and solitude. She wants to be free. And when two masked men from the dreaded Mollakai arrive early to perform the sacrificial ceremony, Braya strikes a bargain with an underground resistance movement to escape.
