Synopsis

During the wedding celebration of Waterdeep's Open Lord Piergeiron and his bride Eidola, dark and mysterious forces are at work, threatening his happiness. Multiple conspiracies unfold simultaneously — involving shapeshifters, assassins, and ancient magic — culminating in the bride's abduction and forcing Piergeiron to assemble a rescue team.

Where it sits

Notes

  • Part of the Double Diamond Triangle Saga, a 9-novella multi-author 1998 series set in Cormyr and the Dalelands; a companion/sequel work to The Nobles, though a separately-titled saga rather than the same books. Beyond the first volume, no independently confirmable ISBN was found for this edition.
  • From the series record (Double Diamond Triangle Saga): A 9-novella multi-author 1998 series following the Double Diamond Triangle trading company's affairs across Cormyr and the Dalelands; a companion/sequel work to The Nobles, but a separately-titled saga, not a duplicate of those books. Only the first volume, The Abduction, has an independently confirmable ISBN from the sources checked.

Neighbouring works

Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.

  • Internal chronology, within Forgotten Realms: position 18 of 215: previous Sacrifice of the Widow (2007) · next Blackstaff (2006)
