Adlervacht officer Lysandra Mondlerche interrogates disgraced general Altair Machweld-Schwalbe--a man whose pedestal was shattered after mercilessly murdering his own father and brother. When she demands answers, Altair doesn't give her one. Instead, he offers her a black suitcase. Inside: the life of his greatest obsession.
The Gardener.
Evanthe Leracine was more than just a serial killer. To the Kingdom of New Ravin, he was a snake dressed in the glittering clothes of a beloved perfumer. To Altair, he was the man that saved his life...and ruined it.
