In 1552, Lymond commands a royal galley across the Mediterranean while searching for a kidnapped child and pursuing Graham Reid Malett. The chase passes through France, North Africa and Constantinople, where diplomacy, slavery and the court of Suleiman the Magnificent become pieces in Malett’s revenge. Lymond is forced into a final contest in which strategic brilliance cannot prevent devastating personal loss.
