A covert ops liberation of Barrayaran allies in a
Cetagandan POW camp goes awry and Miles Naismith is right
in the middle of it. Will he find damnation though good
works, or faith alone?
Still reeling from the prior mission, the Dendarii Free
Mercenary Fleet puts in at old Earth for repairs—and finds
old enemies. Miles's attempt to juggle both his
identities, Admiral Naismith and Lieutenant Lord
Vorkosigan, crashes when a new player enters the game: the
brother he never knew he had.
Two years later, on the crime planet of Jackson's Whole,
disaster gets a new name: Mark Pierre Vorkosigan. Another
rescue, of clone children scheduled to be murdered for
their bodies, goes seriously sour. This time, the
consequences look fatal and permanent—unless two brothers
can each learn the other's true names and games.
