Description
Suspicion and fear grip the city of Rivern as an epidemic mysteriously claims victims in their sleep. Heath, a fallen-priest-turned-professional-assassin, is tasked with discovering the cause. Along with his companion, an intelligent sword, he must investigate layers of conspiracy to discover the culprit.
A mysterious harbinger whispers of dire prophecy. A deposed tyrant and her daughter seek refuge behind the walls of the great houses. An alcoholic wizard fallen on hard times stumbles upon a powerful magical secret that could alter the course of the world. Murder, magic, and politics create a menacing tangle that three unlikely heroes must resolve before Rivern is destroyed forever. They will face assassinations, godlike beings, buried secrets, and the restless dead as they race to thwart the machinations of the Queen of Lies.
The first of three stand-alone installments in the thrilling, genre-blending Architects of the Grand Design Trilogy.
