With one of their own dead, the ruling elite want answers.
The unthinkable has happened. One of the Ageless has been killed, their body left in a public space, displayed for all to see.
The Archon is furious and threatens to burn the entire city, unless the person responsible is found and turned over to her for justice.
Thea March is called on to investigate again. As little as she wants to turn anyone over to the Archon, she also knows that the Ageless could burn the city to the ground and not care about the death and destruction they cause.
Working with Niath, can Thea find the person responsible for the Ageless' death? And, if she finds them, can she bring herself to turn them over to the Archon?
