But his allies have problems of their own. Ornery archdruid Owen Kennedy is having a wee bit of troll trouble: Turns out when you stiff a troll it's not water under the bridge. Meanwhile Granuaile is desperate to free herself of the Norse god Loki's mark and elude his powers of divinationa quest that will bring her face-to-face with several Slavic nightmares. As Atticus globetrots to stop his nemesis Theophilus the journey leads to Rome. What better place to end an immortal than the Eternal City? But poetic justice won't come without a price: In order to defeat Theophilus Atticus may have to lose an old friend.
