In the Lion’s Mouth
It’s a big Spiral Arm, and the scarred man, Donavan buigh, has gone missing in
it, upsetting the harper Mearana’s plans for a reconciliation between her
parents. Bridget ban, a Hound of the League, is unconvinced that reconciliation
is either possible or desirable; but nonetheless has dispatched agents to
investigate the disappearance. After all, Donovan had once done the favor for
her (in Up Jim River).
There is a struggle in the Lion’s Mouth, the bureau that oversees the Shadows—a
clandestine civil war of sabotage and assassination between those who would
overthrow Those of Name and the loyalists who support them. And Donovan, one
time Confederal agent, has been recalled to take a key part, willingly or no.
