Unwilling to submit to ritual sacrifice, for obvious reasons, Lori and her soldier friend escaped the ruined city of the ancients only to find themselves at the mercy of hordes of nighttime predators. Their only chance of survival is to put their fate in the hands of a small band of merfolk who are less than enthusiastic about saving them. Delivered into the deep to recover from their ordeal and injuries, Lori learns more about the ocean folk and the reasons behind their disdain for citizens of Riverton. It wasn't only troops of the Frontier Forces who'd been murdered recently, warriors of the Southwind tribe were killed when they attempted to petition the wrong officials in the city about the pollution sickening and threatening their people. Gaining allies among the merfolk, Lori returns to Riverton and she doesn't come back alone. The quest to free the city from the grip of corrupt nobility continues. As Lori and her boss plot to save the city and the harbor, they uncover deeds and crimes even darker than the deliberate lock-down of the harbor. Kidnappings and murder plague the poor and vulnerable citizens of Riverton and an apparent scheme to frame non-humans for the deaths of innocents brings the threat of even more turmoil to the already troubled city. Unexpected romance adds to the confusion, as does Lori's growing reputation as a troublemaker. Certain powerful outsiders are not amused.
