Description

All John Bessarion wants is to find his way home…but first he must fight his way past crusaders, djinn, and one deadly immortal assassin…

Tripoli, 1289: Trapped by black magic in a hostile future, John Bessarion is determined to find his way back to a home and family that desperately need him. Yet when his quest leads him to a city trembling on the brink of destruction, John discovers that not everyone in this strange future has forgotten his name…or the terrible things he's already done to protect his people.

A djinn enslaved to an immortal assassin, Soraya fears she will never be anything more than a killer. Sent to infiltrate and betray a city under siege, she is helpless to subvert her mission until she stumbles across a face from her long-forgotten past.

John and Soraya join forces to save the city, only to attract the attention of opposing sides in an ancient battle of evil against evil. Yet the greatest danger they face might not be the demons struggling for control of Tripoli...but the secrets buried in both their pasts.

Is there any way home for killers like them?
