Synopsis
Kamoth Kastelmar, a sadistic young lord who charmed his way into marrying the sister of the Harmach of Hulburg before he was exiled for conspiring against his new brother-in-law, returns at the head of a band of bloodthirsty pirates who threaten to raze Hulburg to the ground. The city council chooses the swordmage Geran Hulmaster to track the pirates to their hidden base, infiltrate their ranks and find a way to stop them before it is too late. But the pirates are motivated by more than greed: kin to his enemies, they seek a deeper revenge, one Geran only begins to glimpse when they kidnap the woman he loves. The second book of the Blades of the Moonsea.
