After the defeat of the Inquisition on the island, Cathan is engaged to act as a go-between to sell weapons to other rebels on the peninsula.

Unfortunately, they all have a different agenda. The rebels want the overthrow the emperor and to become a republic. T

he pharaoh does not trust Gahan, even though he knows her secret identity. Gahan wants to find a ship, long since sunk which holds secrets that will undermine the Domain and end the power of the inquisition.

Plot and counterplot ensue, resolved in a thrilling climax.

One of the problems of reviewing a book like this is that because of the lack of action it is difficult to outline the plot. But because there is a lack of action as such, does not make this a bad book.

Far from it. It is a superb piece of work and should go on to enhance this young writer's reputation.

One to buy. Highly recommended.
