  Duty before pride.
  
  
  After saving the prince from certain death and convincing the sun priests that
  he’s not dead but in magical stasis, a high priest of the Lord of Night should
  have time to relax and enjoy his tryst with the captain of the palace guard.
  Between the nobles blackmailing him over his past and the sun priests intent
  on staking and beheading the prince (to save his soul), Rak’s in deeper
  trouble than ever. And to make matters worse, the captain doesn’t even
  remember their tryst.
