Bieste of Chryseis is a cursed man on borrowed time¿
Big, burly and bad tempered, Bieste is a man nearly broken. His past is a blank, his present a living hell and his future short unless he finds the answers he seeks before time runs out. Clocked and locked for impending death, he spends his days half drunk and his nights chasing down answers that always seem to elude him¿
Nebula Rose is a woman of many talents and more secrets¿
With one foot in the past and an eye towards the future, Nebula seeks adventure and acceptance. But taking care of her elderly and erratic father leaves little time to seek either, especially when she's the sole provider. But things take a darker turn when she discovers he's disappeared into the seedy shadows of the Mirrorteram Syndicate, Sub Terra's biggest mob syndicate and the only man that could help her is the man who stands accused of murder...Bieste.
Brought together by circumstance, can Nebula find the man within the monster before he is lost forever? Can she soothe his ravaged soul and help repair his fractured mind in time to help her save her father or will she lose far more than she bargained for?
