Who will live? Who will die? And who will rule triumphant?Haunted by the sacrifices he made in Constantinople, Radu is called back to the new capital. Mehmed is building an empire, becoming the sultan his people need. But Mehmed has a secret: as emperor, he is more powerful than ever . . . and desperately lonely. Does this mean Radu can finally have more with Mehmed . . . and would he even want it? Ladas rule of absolute justice has created a Wallachia free of crime. But Lada wont rest until everyone knows that her countrys borders are inviolable. Determined to send a message of defiance, she has the bodies of Mehmeds peace envoy delivered to him, leaving Radu and Mehmed with no choice. If Lada is allowed to continue, only death will prosper. They must go to war against the girl prince. But Mehmed knows that he loves her. He understands her. She must lose to him so he can keep her safe.
