The surviving Shield-Brethren reach the centre of Mongol power, where Ögedei’s court is shaped by succession rivalry, ritual and the brutal spectacle of the Circus of Swords. Their assassination mission can succeed only if they survive the arena, understand the divisions within the imperial family and decide which apparent allies can be trusted.

The Roman contest over the papacy also reaches its conclusion as the consequences of the Mongol advance become impossible to postpone. The third volume closes the central trilogy by bringing the eastern and western political struggles to their decisive confrontations.
