This 6th installment in the series following the escapades of Captain Diego Alatriste, is a story of skirmishes, boarded ships, killings and sackings in a time where Spain was revered, feared and hated in the easterly seas; where the devil had no color, no name and no flag, and where the only thing needed to summon hell on was a Spaniard and his sword; where men went about their tasks without meddling in government, philosophical or theological affairs—a time where men were soldiers.

Naples, Rome, and Milan are some of the backdrops in Captain Alatriste’s latest exploit. Accompanied by young Íñigo Balboa, Alatriste is given orders to intervene in a conspiracy critical to the Spanish Crown—a swift attack to assassinate the Doge of Venice during the Christmas Mass and to forcibly place a new head of government more conducive to the Catholic King’s interests in this Italian region. For Alatriste and his comrades—veteran soldier Sebastián Copons and the dangerous Moor Gurriato, among others—, the mission rapidly becomes difficult, risky and full of surprises. Suicidal certainly, but not impossible.
