Publisher's Synopsis
"Konkol has a gift for vivid descriptive language, drawing the reader quickly and readily into the heart of the story... it adds to the book's dramatic tension and emotional force." -IndieReader
Still reeling from Plaguebringer's assault, the city of Derregain struggles to survive a supernaturally harsh winter. Without access to their farms or fishing fleets, the city turns to the vast mushroom fields lying beneath its sewers, but those fields are defended.
While the heroes embark on dangerous missions beneath the streets, the city above teeters on the edge of civil war. Impoverished gangs rise up, challenging the rich and powerful, slaughtering soldiers in the streets, but the revolution isn't limited to humanity.
Unable to deny the truth any longer, the Demon Queen orders the execution of Lamenica, the traitorous succubus who oversaw all demonic activities in Derregain during Plaguebringer's rise. She offers Raelyn the chance to assume the mantle of leadership, but only if Raelyn can find a way to destroy her rival.
