As the future of the Sabbat Worlds campaign teeters on a knife's edge, new hope emerges in the form of Saint Sabbat herself, reincarnated to lead the Imperium to victory over the dark forces of Chaos. The living saint calls on Colonel-Commissar Gaunt and the Tanith First and Only to become her bodyguards. Doubting whether she is who she says she is, Gaunt must discover the truth while fighting off enemy troops and deadly assassins. But betrayal within the Ghosts will not only jeopardize the mission, it will also tear Tanith apart.
