Summary
Taako and Lup’s career as traveling cooks comes to a screeching halt when they get trapped in the shittiest hellhole on their route. Some demon overlord type is picking a fight with the Raven Queen, and the opening salvo features a zombie army and an impenetrable dome of black fog.
Obviously, the twins aren’t gonna fuck with this. But their escape attempt does not work out.
Meanwhile, Istus intervenes to save Lucretia’s life, leaving her the sole official left to organize a resistance-- With the warning that she’s going to screw up. And how could she not? What’s she supposed to do, ask Barry J. Bluejeans, the necromancer employed by the bad guys, for zombie-killing advice?
At least she has Magnus and Merle to rely on when things continue breaking bad. Her bureau’s been infiltrated by the demon’s minions and it’s difficult to tell friend from foe. Angus McDonald is on the case, but he doesn’t know who to approach-- Not many people take kids seriously.
And at the core of this whole mess is the Raven Queen, who’s enduring a loss she can’t afford.
