Researcher Shennon Trelor has work to do.
She’s earned a coveted spot on the negotiation team selected to bring a close to a war between two kingdoms.
A snow storm, a dragon and the labyrinthine archives of High Cadore are not going to interfere with her doing her job.
When Shennon arrives late to the negotiation, she’s mistaken for a Question Girl and taken before the Dragon King. Though she makes it abundantly clear she has more important things to do than visit a querying dragon, he wants her to visit each day before she begins her work.
The Dragon King needs an answer.
His administrator brings a different teenage girl each day to face the question, until the day a woman from a negotiation team is accidentally brought to him.
She’s unlike anyone he’s seen in far too long. Perhaps this woman with a knack for finding out answers is who he’s been waiting for.
The answer to the question will free him from a curse, but after five hundred years, he doesn’t remember what question he’s supposed to ask or what will happen once he gets his answer.
As time passes, it is uncertain if it’s the question and its answer that is binding them together or something much more magical.
The shifting moods of the Dragon King and her own unexpected desire to help him pull Shennon into a 500-year-old curse and land her in royal intrigues far beyond her expectations.
Will she find the answer to his forgotten question? Will the answer save the king or kill him?
