Synopsis
The king, born in exile, has recovered the throne of his ancestors, but his reign opens with fresh betrayals and shifting loyalties. Courtiers who swore oaths in the war years now weigh them against their own interests, and old enemies and new allies are hard to tell apart. In the middle of the bloodshed a mysterious girl appears who bears an odd resemblance to the new king's crown. The book follows the king, his marshal and the nobles around them as the realm tries to settle after the war, while hidden forces older than the kingdom begin to reach into the court. Each character has to decide what he owes to the crown, to his friends, and to his own past.
