Synopsis
As the war that has fed his trade winds down, Saevus Corax sets his sights on retirement, with two final goals: one last profitable score, and a clean exit from the entanglements his years of battlefield salvage have left behind him -- including getting away with murder. True to form, his attempt at an orderly departure from the business spirals into fresh chaos, bringing the trilogy's mercenary politics and Corax's own morally compromised choices to a head as he tries to settle accounts on his own terms.
