Now, in Jubilee Manor, she struggles to bring the Gentry and the Rootless together. But when Gentry heirs--Madeline's old friends--are murdered, even she begins to think a Rootless is behind it, putting her at odds with the boy she loves and the very people she is trying to lead. If she can't figure out who is killing her friends and bring them to justice, a violent war will erupt and even more will die--and Madeline's name, her estate, and all the bonds she's forged won't make any difference.
