Murder, lust, cruelty, and intrigue...This is the story of a great family in turmoil. It is set in a fictional 18th century Europe and concerns an absolute monarch and his four very different sons.
The monarch is certifiably insane and his first three sons certainly share some if not all of his traits.
The youngest son Kanchure, is a poet and a fool. He is the scapegoat, the sacrificial pawn on a multi-layered chessboard, a plaything for the greedy and corrupt. Ordered to undertake an ignoble quest he does so and with help from an illiterate pig farmer, a failed highwayman, a hired killer and a feisty innkeeper, sets in motion events that might just might bring the whole rotten edifice down.
