The Church of Ixmarity is under siege – the followers of the maverick prophet Resence Jeopardy are winning new converts daily and their heresy threatens the state itself, as well as the wealth and position of those who govern it, particularly the eccliesiarch, Wilfish Implexion. Implexion is determined to stamp out the Jeopardites by any means at his disposal, no matter how ruthless. But the Jeopardites are nomadic, flitting from sanctuary to sanctuary, constantly evading the forces of Ixmarity. Implexion is not alone in his determination to seek out the elusive heretic – four others are desperate in their desire to find Jeopardy... Lucein ... a former colleague of Resences Jeopardy, a vibrancer of the Church of Ixmarity, a man who would have dedicated his life to the dance in respectable slavery had it not been for the love of the prophet to be. Cleo...the child bride of a poisoner. When the beautiful Inky, one of Jeopardy’s illegitimate offspring, is brought to her house for disposal, she falls in love – with the boy and with his sire. Selilah and Trajan..brought together by death and disease. Delilah is orphaned by Rajan’s violent attack on her village, and she’s the only one ont prey to either his wrath or the pernicious plague he carries. Delilah promises to watch over Trajan as he returns to the sanctuary of the Jeopardite camp – he believes Resenence is his only possible saviour from the terrible curse he carries. But in finding Jeopardy all four questers are ultimately surprised by the nature of their success...
