Bent on revenge for her parents' murder, Leyna travels to a hit where assassins gather, intending to find and kill the one who ruined her life. But she discovers her travelling companion is more than he seems when their pasts come crashing together.
Leyna, a warrior woman and high-end thief, turned her back on her title as Lady Leynarve of Monsae after her parents' death.
Vygeas, a mercenary and assassin, has the gift of heightened perception, allowing him to sense his opponents' emotions and anticipate their every move.
In a world of clan kings, warriors and mages, Lord Ciaran plans to battle for the High Kingship.
Sickened by the warmongering, Vygeas awaits execution for desertion. Lord Ciaran gives Vygeas one final task to ensure Vygeas' freedom--kill a mark and avoid the gallows.
Unaware of Vygeas' trade, Leyna hitches a ride with the sell-sword and his young knave, Aiden.
Drostan, a powerful sorcerer-mage in Lord Ciaran's service, granted Vygeas his gift years ago. An old grudge against Vygeas, sitting deep in Drostan's heart, surfaces as he pursues Leyna under Lord Ciaran's orders.
Fighting their joint foes without, and battling their torments within, Vygeas and Leyna discover the truth that could destroy their relationship.
Will their past define them, or will they discover all they could be?
