A captivating new illustrated novella from the legendary fantasy author Kristen Britain, set in her enduring Green Rider universe.

After years of leading the relentless battle against the vicious Darrow Raiders, Lieutenant-Rider Laren Mapstone has constructed a fortress around herself, shielding her emotions and the profound scars she bears. When she is appointed as the mentor to Tavin Bankside, a Green Rider trainee on his first message errand, her cold and brooding exterior swiftly earns her the nickname "The Ice Lady."

However, the fortress walls crumble only after Laren is gravely injured in an attack on the North Road by a band of bandits, including some former Darrow Raiders driven by a thirst for vengeance. Despite seeking refuge from danger in a Rider waystation, Tavin's natural empathic gift leaves him vulnerable to the onslaught of Lieutenant Mapstone's emotions. Tavin must save Lieutenant Mapstone's life and master his empathic gift before it destroys them both.

Yet, an ancient power lurks deep within the Green Cloak, holding the key to the Riders' survival or the downfall of Sacoridia and all the free lands. This action-packed, feminist fantasy is a must-read for genre enthusiasts, whether they are longtime fans of the Green Rider series or discovering the realm of Sacoridia for the first time.
