Yanko and his friends must escape a Turgonian prison and find passage back home before their enemies claim an advantage that could change the world. And not for the good of the Nurian people.

But even more trouble awaits at home. Civil war has broken out, Yanko's family is in danger, and the man who sent him on his mission has disappeared.

If Yanko can't find Prince Zirabo, he'll forever remain a criminal and be hunted down by his own people. Worse, his only chance to survive and redeem his honor may be to rely on the one person who's been trying to kill him since his adventure began.
