After a magical eruption devastates the kingdom of Belwar, royal heir Adraa is falsely accused of masterminding the destruction and forced to stand trial in front of her people, who see her as a monster. Adraa's punishment? Imprisonment in the Dome, an impenetrable, magic-infused fortress filled with Belwar's nastiest criminals--many of whom Adraa put there herself. And they want her to pay. Jatin, the royal heir to Naupure, has been Adraa's betrothed, nemesis, and fellow masked vigilante ... but now he's just a boy waiting to ask her the biggest question of their lives. First, though, he's going to have to do the impossible: break Adraa out of the Dome. And he won't be able to do it without help from the unlikeliest of sources--a girl from his past with a secret that could put them all at risk. Time is running out, and the horrors Adraa faces in the Dome are second only to the plot to destabilize and destroy their kingdoms. But Adraa and Jatin have saved the world once already. ... Now, can they save themselves?

Ein Vulkanausbruch hat das Königreich Belwar erschüttert - und Thronerbin Adraa wird zu Unrecht beschuldigt, ihn verursacht zu haben. Zur Strafe muss sie ins Gefängnis, und das ohne Zugriff auf ihre Magie. In der undurchdringlichen Festung sitzen die übelsten Kriminellen ein. Viele von ihnen hat Adraa selbst dort hineingebracht. Und nun wollen sie Rache. Jatin glaubt an Adraas Unschuld und möchte um ihre Hand anhalten - falls er je den Mut findet, sie zu fragen. Zuerst muss er jedoch das Unmögliche schaffen: ihr zur Flucht aus dem Gefängnis verhelfen. Und die Schrecken, denen Adraa dort begegnet, sind noch nicht das Schlimmste, was sie bekämpfen müssen ...
