Gangster, soldier, priest. Queen´s Man. Governor.
´If you haven´t yet picked up this riveting and unique series, I highly recommend you do´ Fantasy Book Critic
Tomas Piety has everything he ever wanted. In public he´s a wealthy, highly respected businessman, happily married to a beautiful woman and governor of his home city of Ellinburg. In private, he´s no longer a gang lord, head of the Pious Men, but one of the Queen´s Men, invisible and officially non-existent, working in secret to protect his country.
The queen´s sudden death sees him summoned him back to the capital - where he discovers his boss, Dieter Vogel, Provost Marshal of the Queen´s Men, is busy tightening his stranglehold on the country.
Just as he once fought for his Pious Men, Tomas must now bend all his wit and hard-won wisdom to protect his queen - even when he can´t always tell if he´s on the right side.
Tomas has started to ask himself, what is the price of power? And more importantly, is it one he is willing to pay?
