    Summary

    Dawes 'Rook' Mercar has long accepted that his life would be a grueling and bloody-knuckled fistfight. He dreams of a new Imperium, of slavery abolished, of the Venatori eradicated; but his blind vengeance for the murder of his mother muddies the waters of his intentions.

    A chance meeting six months ago delivered him Scout Lace Harding, and impossibly, a reminder that goodness can still be found in some hearts. While he works through the brambles of his own mind, he asks her, selfishly, to wait for him.

    In the throes of the Sixth Blight, his traitorous heart has other plans.
