Queen Miratone, the human ruler who tried to bring humans to bolster the shifter population, is dead, killed by the centaur herd that invaded the city. Garnet, the noble who was most outspoken about opposing Mira's policy, has a dark secret of her own and has withdrawn from public life. The four monarchs, the survivors of a bloody game of intrigue over the throne, fight a delicate battle for supremacy.
The once beautiful city of Telula has fallen into decay in the past months. Corpses from the battle still rot in the alleys of the lower tier. Murders are commited almost daily. Fear reigns over all, and shifters who were once neighbors are now bitter enemies. The city has been split into four, each group supporting one of the monarchs. They will stop at nothing to eradicate the oppositiong by whatever means necessary.
And in the shadows, Garnet lurks. Plagued by guilt, she has finally decided to make her move, like a leopard at the hunt. She must be silent, take out her opponents one by one, and win over their supporters. But in doing so, she might just become one of them....
