Magpie is a thirteen-year-old orphan chosen by one of the magical

Companion horses of Valdemar and taken to the capital city, Haven, to

be trained as a Herald. Like all Heralds, Magpie learns that he has a

hidden Gift-the Gift of telepathy. But life at the court is not without

obstacles. When Mags is ""recognized"" by foreign secret operatives whose

purpose is unknown, Mags himself comes under suspicion. Who are

Magpie's parents-who is he, really? Can Mags also solve the riddle of

his parentage and his connection with the mysterious spies-and prove

his loyalty-before the king and court banish him as a traitor?
