Five years have passed since Skiouros left Istanbul with his brother’s remains and a nebulous goal to make the usurper Cem pay for Lykaion’s death. Skiouros is older and wiser, and has come to understand the price that vengeance exacts from its wielders. Saved from the French authorities by Dragi, the Romani crewman of a Turkish galley, he and his friend Parmenio are bound once more for the east.
