About This Book

The final volume follows the resolution of tangled family relations and social entanglements: a troubled man battles inward despair while a companion observes, and private intrigues escalate through councils, secret proposals, a violent crime and its aftermath. Rivalries and hidden faults provoke moral reckonings as allies and adversaries intervene to expose imposture, effect rescues, and seek revenge. Episodes of confrontation and reversal produce legal and personal consequences, leading to punishments, reconciliations, and altered fortunes that settle lingering grievances among the kin and their associates.
