Nina must learn the truth about herself that she has denied for so long, and she must go to the mysterious Godshome to do it. Rhys, the monk of Majere, accompanied by his dog Atta and the kinder Nightshade, is given the dangerous assignment of guarding the crazed god.
Their path is fraught with peril, for the undead. Beloved want to make Mina their leader. The former death knight, Krell, now a fearsome Bone Accolyte, brings fire and death to the town of Solace in an effort to seize Mina. And her trusted former lieutenant, the minotaur Galdar, is ordered to try to turn Mina to the side of evil by delivering into her hands her most hated enemy.
