Produktbeschreibung
High level politics in the Kavillian empire is a dirty, dangerous game--a game Cassie knows well. As a member of an ambitious imperial family, she has been tutored from birth to play a leading role in the contest for power. Yet even she is caught out when a murderer raises the stakes. Meanwhile her lover, Arian, has problems of her own. Life in the upper strata of Kavillian society is so very different from the honor-based culture of her homeland. She despises the unending, ruthless cycle of intrigue, blackmail, and deception that Cassie views as normal--regrettable sometimes, but more often a source of entertainment. Nor can she accept Cassie's willingness to sacrifice everything and everyone to advance her family's position. Arian's determination to stay true to her own moral code will be put to the test if she is to save their relationship, and Cassie's life. Sequel to A Fox in Shadow

Autorenporträt
Jane Fletcher is a GCLS award-winning writer and has also been short-listed for the Gaylactic Spectrum and Lambda Literary Awards. She is author of two ongoing sets of fantasy/romance novels: the Celaeno Series--The Walls of Westernfort, Rangers at Roadsend, The Temple at Landfall, Dynasty of Rogues , and Shadow of the Knife; and the Lyremouth Chronicles--The Exile and The Sorcerer, The Traitor and The Chalice, The Empress and The Acolyte, and The High Priest and the Idol. Her love of fantasy began at the age of seven when she encountered Greek mythology. This was compounded by a childhood spent clambering over every example of ancient masonry she could find (medieval castles, megalithic monuments, Roman villas). Her resolute ambition was to become an archaeologist when she grew up, so it was something of a surprise when she became a software engineer instead. Born in Greenwich, London, in 1956, she now lives in southwest England where she keeps herself busy writing both computer software and fiction, although generally not at the same time.
