Sarkis is sworn to protect whoever wields the sword, and for Hallaa most unusual wielderhe finds himself fending off not grand armies and deadly assassins but instead everything from kindly-seeming bandits to roving inquisitors to her own in-laws. But as Halla and Sarkis grow closer, they overlook the biggest threat of allthe sword itself.
