Barely living through the Brotherhood's plans, Arin must survive in a city teeming with intrigue and schemes that rarely include his well-being. More and more of his memories bubble to the surface, making him question whether he genuinely wants to know the truth about himself.
On the other hand, the Church strives for its own goals, ignoring the main danger and pushing the world a step closer to catastrophe. Ambition and prophecy will collide in a battle of wills that will determine the fate of many.
Matters get further complicated by Arin's lack of magic and the horde of undead about to end all living things in their path.
