Three days after his fatherâs death and his brotherâs betrayal, Damianos holds the crown of Akielosâwon in a single night of bloodshed, at the cost of the men who taught him to fight. The Regent of Vere arrives before the bodies are cleared, his condolences perfectly timed. At his side is his nephew: the boy whose brother Damen killed on the border six years ago, sent north to seduce and unmake the new king before he can secure his throne. Damianos killed Auguste.
Now he has to survive Laurent of Vere.
