Out of the frying pan--Into the fire...Not only is Caradoc Penluathe a failed mage, now he is also a fugitive accused of murder. Delsidor Whitfauconer was fataly stabbed in Ambrothen Cathedral, and all signs point to Caradoc, and a malevolent misuse of magepower.
Evelake Whitfauconer, son and heir to the murdered man, is in Caradoc's care. Evelake's mind has been removed and replaced by Borthen Berigeld, in a first move to take control of Garillon.
Caradoc, hunted and bereft of the mage-stone which is the source of his power and healing, must travel paths imbued with malignant hostility. With only his native talent and courage to keep him alive, Caradoc must bring young Evelake to sanity anf safety.
Only then can he tackle the infinitely worse confrontation with the feral evil of Borthen Berigeld!
