Shadows of Insurrection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781959804710)

There's a kettle of rotten fish on the fire ... and the stink's about to get worse.

- Jeskan proverb

Once in a generation, the matriarchs of Jeska choose a new king to manage the government and command the Guard - protecting Jeskans from crime, invaders, and insurgency. Corren's been training for that job since he was six, but this is an unsettled time: rumors of strange incursions, grumbling discontent, and increasing brigandry.

Corren's own problems are multiplying. His father, a skeptical shaman, has gone missing, His polyamorous foster-brother keeps interfering with his personal and professional business. And the king needs him to track down the conspirators behind a simmering insurrection.

When a strange woman turns up wearing a shaman's cape, speaking a weird language, and hiding knowledge that doesn't belong in this world, all his plans will have to change.
