Davico is heir to a wealthy, powerful banking family in Navola, a republic where allowing your true thoughts and feelings to show on your face is the ultimate sign of weakness. Although Davico has an affinity for the natural world, his birthright is an all too human tangle of plotting and manipulation, a fate forever altered by touching a potent relic, the eye of a dragon. An absorbing, immersive and increasingly brutal story of power and betrayal.
