He is heir to the mighty city of Carcemish, part of the ancient Hittite empire. But the empire is crumbling and Xander has lost his inheritance to an invading army.

Separated from Xander by treachery and betrayal, Lily clings to the hope that one day the piece of amber will draw them back together again.
