The King is dead, the Order of the Shrouded is dissolved, and a powerful conspiracy is unfolding in the most corrupt city in the world. A series of masterfully planned murders, beginning with the death of an idealistic young king, must end with the death of an orphan and destroy everything that the caped bearers Falkio, Kest and Brasti fought for. The three heroes have to destroy the plot of the conspirators, save the girl and revive the order, but they have nothing but tattered cloaks and blades, for in days like now, every nobleman becomes a tyrant, and a knight becomes a robber, and the only thing that can be trusted is – this is the traitor’s blade.
