Never one to ask permission nor apologies he has acted with near impunity for years.Until now.The High Council of Sorcery has come to Boston and Angel is their target. Charged with numerous violations of practitioner laws his freedom and family are placed in jeopardy.If found guilty Angel's apprentice Daniel will be imprisoned to serve out the remaining years of his apprenticeship. Isaac his brother is too vulnerable to be left unguarded and Angel fears for his sanity and health. And Simeon Elder vampire and Angel's mate refuses to see Angel convicted under the laws of the Council and his actions to keep Angel free threaten to start a war that could destroy their world. And Angel faces the severest of punishmentsthe castration of his gifts.The Council has never cared for the people of Boston and Angel doubts their motives. They have come for some insidious reason and it has nothing to do with upholding the law and everything to do with Angel.Dealing with an impending trial a wayward ghost and a graverobbing ring of thieves leaves Angel on the edge. He thinks he may have a handle on things until violence erupts across the city and a stranger comes to town...a stranger with his own dark powers of necromancy.
