In the tumultuous world of Tristia, the legendary Greatcoats—Falcio, Brasti, and Kest—find themselves embroiled in a new, desperate quest as an unknown killer targets the realm's revered Saints. With the rightful heir, Aline, struggling to claim her father's throne amidst scheming Dukes and burgeoning religious fervor, the murder of a Saint threatens to plunge the country into a brutal theocracy. The Church Inquisitors are seizing power, spreading rumors that the gods themselves oppose Aline's ascension. Falcio, the pragmatic leader, must race against time to unmask the Saint-killer, his only lead a grim, iron-masked Saint of Mercy whose silence holds the key. As he navigates a treacherous landscape of political betrayal and divine wrath, Falcio knows this hunt will culminate in a duel unlike any he has faced—a battle that could prove fatal for even the most skilled swordsman, and determine the fate of Tristia.
