Book description
In the parched, arid wastes of this far-flung Polity world, Snow is
being hunted. With a prize on his head and his life in danger, trust is
a luxury he can't afford. Hirald, pale and deadly in the blistering
heat, is an ambiguous presence. But who is she? What does she want from
him? Mankind has sought Snow's secret for thousands of years, and blood
will flow in the desert before it's revealed. This short tale is
compelling, brutal and lingers long after the final word: the perfect
introduction to Neal Asher's Polity universe fiction. Praise for Neal
