It is an age of kings and veiled magic!
Shadyia, one of the finest of The Silver Rose's courtesans, is hired by an advisor to crusading knights to seduce a mysterious scholar. A precarious assignment to say the least; the knights murder whores and torture men who use them.
Despite the danger, Shadyia will comply. How hard can it be to bring one soft man under her charms? Unless, of course, the ‘scholar’ turns out to be an eight hundred year old magician on a quest to save the world from a vengeful god of death.
Concealing both a forbidden romance with a fellow sister and her own bloody past, Shadyia must choose which man to favor. Her madam demands she appease the advisor to keep their sorority safe from the wrath of his order, but Shadyia’s instincts tell her to aid the magician. Will she follow him beneath the Silver Rose and face the shadows of death, or betray him to preserve the sisterhood she cherishes above all?
