Satyrus and Melitta have survived exile and the struggles of Alexander’s successors, but reclaiming their inheritance requires more than proving their blood. The Bosporan realm is divided among local rulers, Greek cities, Scythian allies and outside powers that prefer weak heirs they can control.

The twins return to the Black Sea with different strengths and competing ideas of rule. Satyrus seeks command through ships and soldiers while Melitta draws on the steppe traditions of their mother, and both must prevent their enemies from turning those differences into a new civil war.
