Held captive on board, Wintrow Vestrit finds himself competing with Kennit for Vivacia's love as the ship slowly acquires its own bloodlust. Meanwhile, Althea Vestrit plans a dangerous rescue to reclaim her family's liveship, while in Bingtown, Malta delves deeper into the magical secrets of the Rain Wild Traders.
