    Summary

    The experience in Caerdicca Unitas has changed Imriel, but it has only partially removed the tension from his relationship with Phèdre. As happy as she is to have him back home, a few months after his return, it is clear that there are still unresolved issues between them, thorny and cumbersome conflicts that only one person in the world claims to be able to dissipate. With this promise, Mélisande Shahrizai suddenly reenters Phèdre's life, proposing a controversial yet indispensable pact.
    Twelve years later, Kushiel's chosen and his avatar find themselves face to face: which of the two will prevail in their eternal dance of love and hate?

    +++

    The story is narrated from Phèdre's point of view, although it is set in the Imriel's trilogy, specifically after Kushiel's Scion, but unaware of the ending where Imriel decides to read his mother's letters.
