And they hold both in their power. Cadillac and Steve's kin-sister, Roz, who have combined their formidable powers are determined to free her but Steve, lured by the prospect of a dazzling career within the First Family, is no longer certain who to support or betray. He has little time in which to decide for, in Ne-Issan, the land of the Iron Masters, a lone woman intent on avenging her dead lover is about to plunge her nation into a civil war that will set the whole continent ablaze.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Patrick Tilley was born in Essex in 1928, but spent his formative years in the border counties of Northumbria and Cumbria.
