Being a warden is tough work at the best of times. Keeping the tenuous peace between the five kingdoms of F l is a difficult business, especially in a land of monsters and magic. Esben Berengar, the realm's most feared warden, relies on his wits and his axe to deal with unscrupulous rulers, bloodthirsty outlaws, and the occasional witch. When the king of Munster is murdered, Berengar is called upon to investigate. Many had cause to want the king dead, and treachery lurks behind every corner. As tensions between humans and all others threaten to boil over, the warden finds himself reluctantly partnered with Morwen, Munster's court magician, to solve the murder before the killer strikes at the royal family again.
