M’Dahz, the Empire’s southern bastion, faces a season of war, terror and internal division. The desert city depends on soldiers, merchants and local communities whose interests no longer align, while threats beyond the frontier exploit every weakness in its defences.

A woman forced to navigate military and courtly power emerges at the centre of the crisis. Her choices connect the fate of M’Dahz to struggles across the wider Empire and challenge assumptions about who may command in a world built on conquest. The novel combines siege, political transformation and the creation of a reputation feared as that of the Dark Empress.
