They have come home now: Lord-Architect Casaubon and Valentine the Scholar-Soldier. Mercenaries in lace and steel pillage the land. Valentine has magia to defend against their swords and muskets - but not against their news: that Casaubon must solve the mystery of why the new domed temple being raised in the City of London is cursed and unbuildable. On London Bridge the impaled heads of criminals whisper recitations of their crimes. In Queen Carola"s Westminster, and the Protector-General Olivia"s Tower of London, coups and conspiracies begin. And then comes the catalyst, Desire-of-the-Lord Guillaime. Suddenly, more than lives are at risk....
