But first, he has a personal task to resolve. He’d made a deal with Cressa Langtry, aka Pandora—use her talents as a thief in exchange for clearing her debt. It was time to release her from that debt. Would she stay and face battle with him? Or find safety among the dreamwalkers?

That question is put on hold as their enemy, Lorenzo Venizi, continues to test their defenses. And while House Trelane unravels the depth of the Council’s millennia-old deceptions, threats against family members must be thwarted—swiftly and harshly.
