Jason Turner has taken one small step into the world of Immortals. Now, he's about to take a giant leap. Silvana's family has been invited to a gala for the rich and powerful Immortal Houses that rule from the shadows. Silvana knows this is her chance to make allies and save her dying House from fading into ruin. But the Immortal world is a ruthless, cutthroat society that preys on the naïve and gullible. Her family is weak, and the vampires smell blood in the water. Things take a turn for the worse when the gala comes under attack and a wealthy wizard is killed. Who or what is responsible? And why? Jason puts himself on the case and begins his search for the murderer. But Jason is only a mortal knight, bumping shoulders with wizards, vampires, and other folk of the Immortal Imperium. He must solve this crime quickly and in secret, before he draws the wrong kind of attention. His investigation risks bringing down the wrath of the High Kings themselves...
