A dire warning scrawled in blood. Three days. A bored courtier.
Palvar Turka is disgruntled at the Sultan's court. He knows it's a great honor to represent his nation, but nothing has quite prepared him for the drudgery he faces every day.
When a priest is found dead, Palvar finally finds an opportunity to do something exciting. But even he couldn't have imagined the magnitude of this case. The dead priest has left a warning in his own blood, and the powerful magical artifact he'd been guarding is now missing.
Time is running out. The Sultanate will be celebrating its two hundredth anniversary in three days. That is, until Palvar can find those who've stolen the magical artifact.
Palvar must convince a skeptical inspector, and face up to powerful forces bent on discrediting him.
Failure is not an option.
