Kirian was a former warrior, a mercenary. She agreed to impersonate Lord Hardor’s wife and suffer public punishment for adultery, with the promise of help to free her sister who had been condemned to serve as a rower on a cargo galley.
But it was far from simple. Slowly recovering from the punishments, Kirian would have to seek assistance for the task that lay ahead of her, and those that might help would have an agenda of their own.
In uncompromising, horrific detail, Clare Seven tells of the evil torments of Lady Demos’ domain in the darkest dungeons of Lord Hardor’s castle, the madness of the wicked Lord, depravity in the innermost chambers of the Thieves’ Guild, the terrible punishments inflicted on those sentenced to the oar and, above all, the story of those who endured and who fought against the worst terrors to be reunited with the ones they loved. A story of loyalty, of betrayal, of sadistic tyranny and, most of all, of bravery and even of love.
