The second book opens with all the characters of the first book headed to a grand celebration. The evil Gogatt has not been seen in at least two suns. Things are going so well for the Kalifee people. The crops are good and the brothels are at their highest revenue. The divine lives within all people and the Kalifee know it and express it so well. There is love and love lost. Betrayal is waiting in the wonderful disguise of love, giving, and commitment. These fighting women and men do so much more than fight the enemy. The internal struggle, after all, is the greatest fight of all.

The story opens in the distant future, postapocalyptic. Women have had to step up their game, moving in many directions, fighting on so many levels. The population and the earth had been severely damaged. Women outnumber the men in alarming numbers. There are roaming gangs of rogue males-rape gangs. Women have had to become warriors. All the Kalifee have to fight. The world's oldest profession helps support the Kalifee people. A woman could move from brothel worker to being the queen of the Kalifee, the Califia! A brothel worker was a skilled courtesan and could rise to exalted queen. Women were held at a high regard in Kalifee society and are equal to men.
