What do a prince, a prostitute, an assassin, and a spy have in common?They happen to all be the same person, for starters. While accompanying his cousin to a diplomatic meeting with the king & queen of Rilleaud, Jaonah ends up in an exclusive brothel, where he shares one impassioned night with a prostitute named Oleander. When Jaonah shows up at the royal family's home, he again encounters Oleander--or rather, Prince Alfonse of Rilleaud. It quickly becomes clear that this isn't the only secret Alfonse has, and getting caught up in his clandestine affairs is hazardous to one's health. So why is Jaonah so determined to get closer to him?
