Yet he remains at odds with one of the most powerful ambassadors at court – the father of the queen’s new child. Then a hunting party goes terribly awry, and Kadou finds himself under suspicion of attempted murder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo prove his loyalty to his sister and salvage his reputation, Kadou takes responsibility for the investigation of a break-in at one of their guilds. He enlists the help of his newly appointed bodyguard, the coldly handsome Evemer, who seems to tolerate him at best. But what appears to be a straightforward crime spirals into a complex counterfeiting operation, with a powerful enemy at its heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Arasht, where princes can touch-taste precious metals with their fingers and myth runs side by side with history, counterfeiting is heresy.
