Vlad tries to save an old ladies land in exchange for healing the boy who helped him from the previous story. In the process, corruption is found to the top level, but nothing can be done about it. And we find out that Keira is Sethra Lavode and that Vlad has a son by Cawti, who he doesn’t know about.
I actually enjoyed this more than most of the previous Vlad books. Maybe because Vlad was a side character? Anyway, typical light fluff. The ending, which I’m sure was supposed to be a huge surprise for hardcore fans, just left me feeling like “so what?”.
