Testing the Empire

The finale of the epic fantasy trilogy about the necromancer Sir Konrad Volvante – a detective, judge, and executioner in one.
THE TIME OF JUDGMENT HAS COME
To save the state, Sir Konrad Vonvalt and Helena must seek help abroad – among... the wolf tribes of the southern plains and the pagan clans of the north. However, old grievances run deep, and both potential allies would only benefit from the fall of the capital.
And even if the negotiations are successful, that may prove insufficient. Sir Konrad's enemy, the fanatic Bartholomew Claver, wields a terrible power granted to him by a mysterious demonic patron. To confront him, Justice and his assistant will have to gain support in the worlds of the living and the dead – and pay a great price.
The battle ignites both in the capital and beyond the mortal realm, and the hour of the final judgment is near. Here, in the very heart of the Empire, the two-headed wolf will either be reborn in the radiance of justice… or be crushed by the tyrant.
