Istanbul 1593. In the final episode of the chronicles, The Ruzgär has inadvertently released an ancient demon. As it now lurks within the bowels of the city, unaware by everyone including Murad III, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, he brings friend and foe to Istanbul, to convene the world’s grandest trade fair.
Returning from their previous mission with the death of their Commander weighing heavily upon them, there is no respite for the Ruzgär unit, as they are declared traitors to the Ottoman Empire and banished from the legendary Janissary order. Even the recovery of the fabled Armour of David, so prized by the Sultan is not enough to prevent this.
Now, desperate and on the run, Will must turn to the sinister Earl of Rothminster as an unlikely protector. Meanwhile Awa and the remaining Ruzgär, outcasts as far as the authorities are concerned, are nevertheless called upon by their small band of supporters to protect the very people who have declared them enemies of the empire, as a mysterious force threatens to engulf the capital. All roads lead to Istanbul and all who traverse it, will be plagued by a demon’s touch.
