In a world torn by war and terror, a pandemic descends, decimating every nation, leading finally to the creation of a World Peace Treaty. To achieve the Peace, the world has been divided into the democracies and constitutional monarchies called The New West, and the theocratic governments, ruled by religion, which the West calls The Veiled World, although those countries call themselves The Faithful World. Neutral lands and waters separate the two, although pirates and mercenaries still operate in those areas, pursued by The World Police.
Alyssa Craig, a noted young professor, has presented a paper at the World League, where a young king from The Veiled World has seen her and fallen in love with her. Alyssa then won a prize, a cruise given to twenty young women for their scholarly and scientific achievements, but their ship was attacked by pirates who would traffic the women into their criminal underground. Alyssa is saved by the young king who brings her as his concubine to his Fortress City in his home country. The story shows how she makes a life there as she tries to regain her freedom, her adventures there, her effect on the people she encounters, and the World Peacekeepers' efforts to reclaim her.
This book is the prequel to Land of Angels: Book 1--The Holy Path.
