Ten years after the events of The Powder Mage trilogy, the Lady Chancellor of the young nation of Fatrasta must use her iron will and secret police force against the unrest of a suppressed population and the machinations of powerful empires.
Michel Bravis, a spy in all but name, a convicted war hero called Ben Styke, and Lady Vlora Flint—general of a mercenary company—must work together to purge the insurrection that threatens Landfall. Loyalties are tested, revealed and destroyed, while old powers are again discovered and will soon be a bigger challenge than Landfall's current worries.
