“Duke Fairchild continues to collaborate with foreign powers, preparing for war on a scale never experienced on the continent. A young prince is kidnapped, the latest victim in the international conspiracy. Despite his renowned intellect, Baron Canol searches for answers to questions he doesn’t understand.”
