This is the fifth novel in the Elizabeth Stanton series. For a time, she is running two bodies at the same time! Ket barely recovers while at sea in his funeral boat, while she begins a new life as a new born baby girl. Confusing? Yes, she gets very confused, but finally sorts it out. Ket dies not long after, while stealing the incriminating documents of Pope Yazi I. Upheaval is the order of the day across all of Tarra, especially across the occupied Sea Prince Sectors. Within each sector, the people handle the suppression in different ways, each trying to throw off the yoke of the Holy Paladins from Megalos. The Pope and the Mano del Dio clamp down even harder, becoming utterly ruthless towards the women within these sectors. The Santi del Dio must now cope with the messes being forced onto the Sea Prince population. Many people make their thrusts for power and control. The centuries old aberrations being inflicted upon women come to the forefront in this chilling tale of power and resolve. Yet, ever the Santi stand alone against those who would enslave.
