A magia há muito abandonou Adarlan. Um perverso rei governa de seu trono de vidro, punindo impiedosamente as minorias rebeldes, quando uma assassina chega ao castelo. Depois de cometer um erro e ser capturada, ela se torna prisioneira nas minas de sal de Endovier, onde a tortura prevalece e ninguém sobrevive. No lugar de resistir à sentença de morte iminente, a assassina de Adarlan aceita uma proposta: representar o príncipe em uma competição com os melhores guerreiros do reino. Mas ela não diz sim para matar, quer sua liberdade de volta. Se derrotar os 23 assassinos, ladrões e soldados, será a campeã do rei e estará livre depois de servi-lo por alguns anos. Seu nome é Celaena Sardothien. O príncipe herdeiro vai provocá-la, o capitão da guarda fará tudo para protegê-la. E uma princesa de terras distantes se tornará algo que Celaena jamais pensou ter novamente: uma amiga. Mas algo maligno habita o castelo — e está ali para matar. Quando os demais competidores começam a morrer, um a um e de maneira horrível, Celaena se vê mais uma vez envolvida em uma batalha pela sobrevivência e inicia uma jornada desdesperada para desvendar a origem daquele mal antes que ele destrua o mundo dela. E sua única chance de ser livre.
