When someone from Tess's past makes a surprise return, old wounds are cracked open, throwing her mission, both the Queen's and Tess's personal agenda, into complete disarray. What's more, Tess's personal pain is intertwined with a history greater than her own, and the mending of it threatens the delicate balance of the entire Southlands.
