The Cutthroat Prince

Whispers of war, cryptic warnings, and new dangers await...

Plunging into the second year of training as a squire, everything is looking up for Will. He gets to train with his best friends, work a new mentor, and learn to become a knight of Alamore. Though the war of the winter is a raw memory, Will is doing his best to push the secrets he has uncovered about who he truly is to the back of his mind. As long as he never speaks of his relation to King Tollien, he hopes he will never have to consider its consequences.

But secrets aren't meant to be hidden forever and there are others who are not as willing to forget.

With the arrival of a mysterious knight in Alamore demanding council with King Revlan, the short peace is fracturing. Now keeping his royal lineage a secret is a battle in itself. The Ranger has ordered him to trust no one, to hide the truth of who he is, and pretend that he is just another squire. And Will is trying his best.

The problem is that people seem to know. Rumors are running through the castle about the arrival of this new knight, unrest in the south, and the grey cloaked riders attacking the unwary in the woods. Will and his friends are thrown into the thick of new dangers when it becomes clear that these rogues are after him and Will must face the Cutthroat Prince or risk losing more than just his life.
