Wracked with guilt and rage following the death of an ally he felt he should have prevented, Alastair Stone wants nothing more than to track down the murderer and exact violent revenge.
The Universe, however, has other plans.
For one, the dragons want to put him on trial for revealing sensitive information to his friends, with the penalty for losing the case potentially worse than death.
And if that isn’t urgent enough, as the time draws near for Thalassa to give birth, something has gone horribly wrong with her pregnancy—something so wrong that it threatens not only the child’s life, but Thalassa’s.
Something directly related to Stone’s convoluted and magically fraught past.
Stone is not without his allies, but ultimately it must fall to him to discover and deal with the threat to Thalassa and the child before it’s too late—even if it could cost him his life.
