Truth and Treachery
The Last War Book 3
The Last War series is one of a kind. The personal relationships are intriguing… The names are cool, the plot gets thicker with each page, and I loved the author's style. I was sad to be finished and impressed by the world that Grayson was able to create. The descriptions were so real and the well-developed characters and sensuous love scenes make this a page turner.
Emperor Carlton has been backed into a corner, with his visions of expansion collapsing all around him. The skirmishes he's launched have had limited success.

Chief Constable Lanser is a private man with a close connection to the Old Emprie that he doesn't divulge to anyone.
