Die ganze Welt scheint vergessen zu haben, wer Kahlan ist, die Gefährtin und Geliebte von Richard Rahl. Nur er selbst kann sich an die Verschollene erinnern und sucht nach ihr voller Verzweiflung und Hast. Denn es ist nicht nur die Liebe, die ihn antreibt: Richard ist in größter Sorge, weil er weiß, dass Kahlan unfreiwillig zum Werkzeug der Zerstörung wird, wenn sie nicht bald erfährt, wer sie wirklich ist. Derweil ist Kahlan aus tiefer Bewusstlosigkeit erwacht. Das Einzige, woran sie sich erinnern kann, ist ihr Name. Doch auf der Suche nach ihrer Identität begreift sie schon bald: Die Wiederentdeckung ihres Ichs kann dazu führen, dass sie durch das Böse mit Haut und Haaren vereinnahmt wird. Trotzdem versucht sie herauszufinden, warum sie eine so wichtige Rolle in der von Intrigen, Verrat und Kriegswirren erschütterten Welt spielen soll. Und worauf sie schließlich stößt, das sind Geheimnisse, die düsterer sind als alles, was sie sich jemals hatte vorstellen können ...
