What this book is about

Rehvenge is half symphath—a race that feeds on others' emotions and can compel them—and has kept that secret for decades while running a drug operation that funds the Brotherhood. When he's blackmailed by the Princeps Council for his true nature, he's forced to become a double agent against the people he loves. His unlikely salvation comes through Ehlena, a nurse at Havers's clinic. Ward's seventh Brotherhood novel explores complicity, sacrifice, and identity through one of the series' most morally compromised protagonists.
