When a routine hanging goes wrong, the survivor announces he is Cayal the Immortal Prince, a Tide lord. However, the only known record of the immortal beings of Amyrantha is the Tidelord Tarot... and everyone knows it is just a parlor-game, an amusement. Arkady Desean, an expert of the legends of the Crasii - a part animal, part human race - is sent to interrogate Cayal. But, in exposing the would-be immortal, Arkady's own web of deceit threatens to unravel. Nothing is really as it seems around the Immortal Prince. the lies seem plausible, his stories improbable... and the truth is more than any of them bargained for.
