Off Center (The Lament Book 2)
Pran is now a Bard again, thanks to some very high level help, from places so high up she can scarcely believe it's really happening. That doesn't mean her work is over, since it's now her job to help arrange a way to get a spy into the halls of power, to uncover a secret and ancient plot.
Things aren't exactly as she thought they were however, and now she has to suspect her own friends and comrades of being in on the designs.
In the end, her place is assured however. Pran is going to be with the winners, no matter what.
