A deadly weapon. A working holiday. What could possibly go wrong?Newly promoted and repeatedly injured, Captain Raneth Bayre is drowning in responsibilities. Between continuing tensions in the Bayre-Frey Feud and his need to set a strong example for the royal officials under his command, he's burning out fast, and all he wants is a few quiet days with the woman he loves.Dagger Bearer Aldora Leoma wants that for him too; crime across the kingdom is spiking, and every time someone knocks on her door, she fears it's the news she's been dreading: that Raneth has finally pushed too hard and gotten himself killed.So when Raneth's next assignment is designed to double as a "working break," Aldora refuses to let him go alone.Their mission? Track down the last missing Weapon of Protection - the Shotput of Power - that's been lost since the day it destroyed its own village.Rumored to be the most violent of the six enchanted weapons, and last seen deep in the almost lawless Newer Kingdom, it may be more than just their lives on the line… especially if the Shotput isn't as dormant as history claims.
