The duke is a surprisingly genial man whose court brings all the fanciness and fun of Persephone's high society but little of the pretension--and, most importantly, he's got the promise of more work. Obliged to stick around while Inara is with a client--and hoping to score future employment--the crew settles in. The liquor flows freely at court, and there's food, entertainment, and comfortable lodgings to enjoy. Everyone is thrilled but Zoèe, whose gut says something is off. When the duke's estate is attacked in the middle of the night, Mal sends Serenity to safety while he and Zoèe investigate. What they find turns the whole story of Kerry upside-down. Revolution is brewing, and each of them will have to decide where to make their stand, even if it lands them on opposite sides.
