With a new husband at her side and a plea for help on her lips, the former Gloria Lepov hires Gregor to hunt down a stolen artifact on a trail littered with the dead. Haunted by her betrayals of the past, he determines to solve her case then throw her off his world before she ruins him a second time.Lilly Stewart has mysteriously chosen to give up her lucrative antiquities business to stay with Lepov in the Lazaretto. Bedeviled by the arrival of his ex-wife, she will perform her own exorcism of the dead husband she betrayed. Homicide Detective Ed MacNally, heading home after a typical day on the job, steps into a bar for a drink and watches two gangsters rough up a bartender. In the time it takes to stand to his feet, he is forced into a gunfight that leaves both gangsters dead. But his fight has just begun. Bent on avenging the death of his brother, one of the most prominent criminals in the Euxine system sets out to make MacNally pay with his life. Abandoned by his fellow detectives, the aging detective's only option is to run.But in quarantine, souls can never hide from their ghosts, their regrets, or the consequences of their worst and best intentions. And when they stop running and turn to face them, Gregor and his friends will pay the cost of betrayal with sorrow, violence and vengeance in a war waged by the gangsters, heroes, angels and traitors who inhabit a unique and dreadful little hell called the Lazaretto.
