The city of Solae was the last to be purified. The goal of the Confederacy, the ruling order of the scattered cities that form their territory, is to create a purified world. We are not sure what goes on inside the walls of the Conversion Jail, or who makes the rules we follow, but they are supposed to be helping us. Therefore, I keep my secret a secret. However, like Isak Dinsen said best, "In the mind and nature of a man a secret is an ugly thing, like a hidden physical defect." Except, my secret is a defect.

A relic, stolen from the heart of an ancient city. An echo of nationalist violence not seen since the dark days of the Second World War. Budapest, Hungary. When a priest is murdered at the Basilica of St Stephen and the Holy Right relic is stolen, the ultra-nationalist Eröszak party calls for retribution and anti-Semitic violence erupts in the city. Dr Morgan Sierra, psychologist and ARKANE agent, finds herself trapped inside the synagogue with Zoltan Fischer, a Hungarian Jewish security advisor. As the terrorism escalates, Morgan and Zoltan must race against time to find the Holy Right and expose the conspiracy, before blood is spilled again on the streets of Budapest.
