The book is a magical fairy tale set in the times of kings and castles, birds that understand people, and wars for countries. After attending the funeral of Prince Joseph, who suffered a mortal wound during a battle with the Tritans, Hilty the Witch devises a plan to gain favor with King John, Joseph's father, who is in deep mourning over the loss of his only son. Hilty ties a note on her pet vulture, Esther's, leg and has her fly to the castle and deliver it to King John. Hilty offers to bring Prince Joseph back to life. King John reluctantly agrees and invites Hilty and Esther to the castle. Hilty and Esther go to the castle with a potion and a book of magical spells to perform the ceremony. Hilty administers the potion to the fallen prince and invokes the spell. Surprisingly, the book ends with a dramatic twist that leaves the reader in awe. The ending screams of a sequel that will capture your heart and leave you in suspense to the very end.
