She's trained to kill. He's beaten the best. This time all bets are
off. Former secret service agents turned private investigators,
Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, return in their most surprising,
personal and dangerous case to date. Michelle had chased many
things in her life. As a track star and later Olympic rower, she
had constantly pitted herself against others in races. As a cop in
Tennessee she had run down her share of felons fleeing the scenes
of their crimes. As a Secret Service Agent she had been fleet of
foot next to limos carrying important leaders. Tonight, though, she
was competing against a long-legged teenager with the boundless
energy and fresh knees of youth who had a substantial head start
and was running like the devil was on his heels...King and Maxwell
encounter teenager Tyler Wingo when he has just received the tragic
news that his soldier father has been killed in Afghanistan. But
then Tyler receives an email from his father...after his supposed
death. Sean and Michelle are hired to solve the mystery, and their
investigation leads to deeper, even more troubling questions. Could
Tyler's father really still be alive? Was his mission all that it
seemed? Has Tyler's life been a lie, and could he be the next
target? It's clear that King and Maxwell have stumbled upon
something even more sinister when those in power seem intent on
removing them at any cost. Determined to help and protect Tyler,
their search for the truth takes them on a perilous journey which
not only puts their lives at risk but arrives at a frightening
conclusion.
Po stáročiach krutých zápasov a osudových zrád sa sedem mocností,
ktoré vládli v jednej ríši, zdecimovalo natoľko, že im nezostalo
nič iné ako uzatvoriť prímerie. Aspoň navonok sa to tak zdalo.
Niekoľko jedincov si ešte stále robí nárok na Železný trón, ale sú
priveľmi slabí alebo vzdialení, aby sa im to mohlo podariť. Vojna,
ktorá trvala tak dlho, pohltila samu seba. Avšak zanedlho sa v
krehkom prímerí zrodia zradcovia, vydedenci, mrchožrúti, ktorí sa
snažia priživiť na mŕtvych i živých. Ľudské vrany sa zlietajú na
opulentnú hostinu a v Siedmych kráľovstvách sa rodia nové intrigy a
vznikajú nebezpečné aliancie, zatiaľ čo zo zlovestného súmraku
minulých zápasov sa vynárajú prekvapivé postavy. Je to čas, keď
múdri a ctižiadostiví, ale aj zradní a silní sa usilujú pomocou
svojich schopností, moci a mágie prežiť kruté a strašné časy, ktoré
nastali. Je to obdobie, kedy ľudia prostí aj urodzení, bojovníci I
čarodejníci, úkladní vrahovia a mudrci spájajú dohromady a bojujú o
svoje miesto na zemi a svoje životy. Na hostinu sa zletelo množstvo
vrán – ale nasýti sa len niekoľko.
