When Lorellan Cartwright finds buying back the
woman he loves an impossible task, he promptly steals her away, but escaping
from the criminally minded third duke of Aristoc and reaching a place of safety
are two very different things. And stealing from the duke embroils Lorellan and
Megan in the politics of crime lords, long forgotten races of fantasy, aliens
and interstellar law enforcement. Can they escape the tangled webs woven by
others and find refuge? Or will they join the ranks of those who tried before
and failed?
