Matthew Norris is a budding author, who makes a great breakthrough in the nation's book market with his premier novel, A Land Unknown. With a magical nation that is taking tighter control of its citizens, the novel's setting and criticisms of the government does not seem to be the best idea. Starting out with a thought of making a difference without serious harm to himself, he soon figures out that the government can bend the laws it creates in order to fulfill its desires. There are mysterious forces and people working against him, some of which must be close to him.

The possibility of death…
