The wars that are never declared but are carried out in dark alleys with masks and hidden knives. Wars where color power alters the natural rhythm of 17th century London. And when the king calls for peace no one listens until he finally calls for death.But what if death finds him first?Keepers think the Igniters caused the plague. Igniters think the Keepers did. But all Thomas knows is that the Stone Plague infecting his eye is spreading. And if he doesnt do something soon hell be a lifeless statue. So when his Keeper father Guy Fawkes invites him to join the Gunpowder Plotclaiming it will put an end to the plagueThomas is in.The plan: use 36 barrels of gunpowder to blow up the Igniter King.The problem: Doing so will destroy the family of the girl Thomas loves. But backing out of the plot will send his father and the other plotters to the gallows. To save one Thomas will lose the other.No matter Thomass choice one thing is clear: once the decision is made and the color masks have been put on theres no turning back.
