Daniel Leary is Cinnabars most successful space captain; his friend, Lady Adele Mundy, is its most efficient spy - but theyve got their hands full this time as they face: a vengeful Cinnabar Senator, a boy ruler of a star cluster who thinks hes a god, a world of slaves and escaped slaves, and an almost indestructible enemy base. From palace to reeking jungle, from gunfights in grimy hangars to the flagships bridge during a sprawling space battle, Leary and Mundy are in the thick of it again.
