Tovan, Lir's cousin and the man who hired Belisare to kidnap him, has been angling to usurp Lir's inheritance. When she delivers Lir to the castle instead of the prison as intended, the traitor's plan changes from sly cunning to brute force.
With his mother and sister in danger, Lir is committed to thwarting his cousin, and Belisare is unwilling to abandon her new lover. The pair face turncoat knights and blood-thirsty mercenaries, but the swords swinging against them aren't enough to distract the pair from a question neither can give voice to after this battle, what will become of their fledgling affections?
