Imriel de la Courcel's blood parents are history's most reviled traitors, while his adoptive parents, Phèdre and Joscelin, are Terre d'Ange's best champions. Stolen, tortured, and enslaved as a boy, Imriel is now a Prince of the Blood, third in line for the throne in a land that revels in beauty, fine art, and desire.
After per annum abroad to study at university or college, Imriel profits from his journeys a little old and somewhat wiser. But not wise enough. That which was once a mere spark of interest between himself and his cousin Sidonie now ignites into a white-hot blaze. But from commoner to peer, the whole realm would recoil from any alliance between Sidonie, heir to the throne, and Imriel, who bears the stigma of his mother's misdeeds and betrayals. Praying that their enthusiasm will peak and diminish, Imriel and Sidonie attempt an intense, key affair.
Blessed Elua founded Terre d'Ange and bestowed one simple precept to steer his people, love as thou wilt. When work calls, Imriel honors his role as a member of the royal family by departing to marry a lovely, if merely sugary, Alban princess. By choosing work over love, Imriel and Sidonie may have unwittingly trespassed against Elua's regulation. But when dark capabilities in Alba, who fear an invasion by Terre d'Ange, seek to use the buffs' enthusiasm to bind Imriel, the gods themselves get sucked in.
Before the end, Kushiel's justice will be noticed in heaven and on the planet.
