Abstract
Venice is at the height of its power. In theory Duke Marco commands. But Marco is a simpleton, so his aunt and uncle rule in his stead. Within the Serene Republic, their word is law, but for all their influence, Venice's fate still lies in other hands ... Among them is Atilo Il Mauros, head of the Assassini, the shadow army that enforces Venice's will -- both at home and abroad. Prince Leopold is the bastard son of the German emperor and leader of the krieghund -- the only force in Venice more feared than Atilo's assassins. And then there is Atilo's angel-faced apprentice. Only a boy, Tycho is already stronger and faster than any man has a right to be. He can see in the dark, but sunlight burns him. It is said that he drinks blood
