The catch? She must work with Maximillian Jaeger, a former enemy in the recent bitter war. Now she must overcome her prejudices and trust him with her life.

On arrival in Pella, nothing is what it seems.
Why have the niece and nephew of the Duke developed such an interest in the team?

What does the Alchemist’s box contain that is worth killing, and dying, for?
