Due to earthquake damage, Winding Circle is susceptible to pirate attacks, therefore everyone is attempting to fortify the community's defenses, including the young mages-in-training Tris, Briar, Daja, and Sandry. The "weather witch" is advised to return to the family who banished her by Tris's cousin Aymery, but she refuses to leave her companions to face the menace alone.
Two things become painfully obvious as the assault starts: the pirates have a potent new weapon, and Winding Circle is one of their accomplices. However, the invaders have underestimated the wrath of a young wizard who has been wronged too often, as well as her steadfast, devoted allies.
