Until she heard of the mysterious Heptite Guild who could provide careers, security, and wealth beyond imagining. The problem was, few people who landed on Ballybran ever left.

It's a shame that Killshandra is such a difficult heroine to like, though; she obviously doesn't have enough talent as a singer, but even though ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/60627425">more...</a>]]></body>

Yes, there are some exciting bits in the book but it doesn't seem to follow the standard intro/buildup/arc/end format of what I've been reading lately.
