When Dominicus Galen fell at Esras Cole's feet on the battlefield, rival generals became reunited lovers.Reunited, perhaps, but not reconciled, for Galen didn't fall alone; the Comid Republic, a federation of the faithful carved from Ainjir, Cole's secular homeland, by bloody rebellion, fell with him. Whether or not they are, or even could be, lovers again, with five years of war between them Cole knows one thing for certain: Treason is too simple a plan for Dominicus Galen.Galen can't even tell him how right he is - surrendering to Cole is a gesture as calculated as it is hopeful. Galen has put his life in the hands of the lover he spent five years fighting. If anyone can save him, it is Esras Cole, but even for Galen, the question remains: Should he be saved?From the moment Galen hits the ground before him, Cole has ten days – six to march to the Capitol, four for Galen's torture, trial, and execution – to unravel the plot of cross and double-cross that condemns Galen to die for his disloyalty. The closer he comes to a solution, the more apparent it becomes that the cost of Galen's life may be the country Cole fought to save – a price the kingdom should be wary of asking him to pay. What else could he do but pay it gladly when the man he fought a war against is the one person who would never betray him?
