A a series of events unfold sending Myrl and Faye searching for a truth they may well not want to face. Protecting the Sword of Mars took Irene's life. Three decades later, the same men would easily kill again. The problem is, Irene still holds puppet strings that reach back decades to rebellion and revolution in the failed heart of Bohemia.
