It is 744 in Chang'an, the largest city on earth, and a plot to attack it during the Lantern Festival is quietly taking shape. A former soldier turned officer has just twelve hours to find the conspirators and stop them, while the court is divided by rivalries of its own. The city becomes a maze of alleys, spies and traps, and every hour matters. It is a tightly paced, beautifully designed historical thriller.
