Ever since his mother was killed, seventeen-year-old Cayder Broduck has had one goalтАФto see illegal users of magic brought to justice. People who carelessly use extradimensional magic for their own self-interest, without a care to the damage it does to society or those around them, deserve to be punished as far as Cayder is concerned. Because magic always has a price. So when Cayder lands a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to apprentice under a premier public defender, he takes it. If he can learn all the tricks of public defense, the better heтАЩll be able to dismantle defense arguments when heтАЩs a prosecutor. Then heтАЩll finally be able to make sure justice is served.
But when he meets the three criminals heтАЩs supposed to defend, it no longer seems so black and white. TheyтАЩre teenagers, like him, and their stories are . . . complicated, like his. Vardean, the prison where CayderтАЩs new clients are incarcerated, also happens to be at the very heart of the horrible tear in the veil between their world and another dimensionтАФwhere all magic comes from.
