An all-new adventure of the Cliff's End Castle Guard!
Humans and elves, dwarves and gnomes, wizards and warriors all live and
do business in the thriving, overcrowded port city of Cliff's End, to
say nothing of the tourists and travelers who arrive by land and sea,
passing through the metropolis on matters of business or pleasure - or
on quests. The hard-working, under-appreciated officers of the Cliff's
End Castle Guard work day and night to maintain law and order as best
they can.
A new drug called Bliss is sweeping across the slums of Goblin Precinct.
It makes people feel better - but if they take too much, they overdose
and die. It doesn't truly become a concern for the Castle Guard until
one of the overdoses turns out to be a former elf lord who is wanted for
war crimes.
The Captain of the Guard must put his best detectives, the half-elf
Danthres Tresyllione and the ex-soldier Torin ban Wyvald, on the case to
find out what happened to the elf. But when the magical examiner
discovers the truth behind Bliss, it becomes a firestorm of controversy
that brings the Brotherhood of Wizards into the case - and that never
ends well....
