The begining of the book starts off with Rose at her trials. The trials are setup for novices, the incomming gaurdians. They train all their lives for these trials, which are supose to be a replica of what they could be faced with out in the real world when incountering Strigoi. Rose is already a skilled Damphir, killing many strigoi in her life already, recieving molija marks which represent each killing. She goes through her trials with little to no problems. Soon after the trials the Moroi and Damphirs Graduate from Vampire Academy.

After graduation Rose, Lissa, Adrian, and Christian leave for the royal court, where they will be staying. There they run into mia, a former classmate of theirs, who lives at the royal court. Rose and Lissa plan to met up with heer later, where they can discuss their future plans.

Mia's father has worked at the royal court for sometime, so Mia knows some "inside" information that others might not. So when Rose and Lissa go meet up with Mia at her house, they ask her for her help. 

Rose has a plan for her and Lissa, sort of an adventure, for them to go on after they graduated. The plan is to go after her love Dimitri and save him, since he has recently become strigoi.  Dimitri was Rose's mentor while at St. Vladimir's, and all though it was not allowed, they fell in love. During Rose's final year at school their was a strigoi attack on the school. Many people died and some were turned into strigoi, like Dimitri. Recently though, Rose has found out there was a person who could change Dimitri back, but he was related to Victor Dashcov who was now in jail for kidnapping Lissa.

After getting the information they needed from Mia Rose and Lissa broke into the headquarters to get the information the prison that Victor is being held. They got pretty far. Lissa used her compulsion, which is use her spirit powers to make people do what she wants them to,to get them passed the guards. Rose then went to where all the files are held and finally found where the file on the prison was at. She decided to take the whole file because she knew all the information inside would be valuable on their trip. Right as she was about to leave though a guard popped up. He let her go though because he fell in love with someone who turned strigoi as well and he knew her pain. He didn't believe the change could be made but he hoped it could happen, so he let her pass.
