The Queen's invasion has been foiled by an act of treason.
The punishment for treason is death, and the Queen knows exactly who to blame; Rye.
Lord Galdoran is the instrument of the Queen's revenge. He's brought an elite team of assassins to London and he's hunting Rye, Pete, and Liz. Galdoran will stop at nothing to complete his mission.
It's not just assassins coming to London. An elderly professor and his protege have fled the Queen's wrath, crossing the Gap to escape arrest and imprisonment. They planned to investigate the portals, but they didn't expect to find a city like London.
And then there's the Black Iron Prophesy itself. What is Black Iron, and what role might it play in the coming storm?
Can Rye stop Lord Galdoran before he slaughters her friends and destroys everything she's worked to build?
