In the fog-draped shipyards of Belfast, the most magnificent vessel ever built is taking shape... and so is a conspiracy that could unravel the fabric of the world itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Pierce\u003c\/b\u003e has a gift that has become a prison. He reads emotions the way others read faces, and he strips away lies as easily as paint from old wood. Once, that power cost an innocent man his life. Now it costs Richard his peace, until a trail of dark magic and murder pulls him out of hiding and into the belly of the great shipyard where secrets breathe between the steel beams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere, he meets \u003cb\u003eIsabel Lahy\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe is sharp, relentless, and brilliant, a designer who belongs in rooms where women are not supposed to sit and who refuses to apologize for it.

Older than the Harland \u0026amp; Wolff yard, older than Belfast, older than the languages that gave death its name. He is a sorcerer of terrifying power, and he has spent lifetimes in pursuit of the one thing that has always escaped him: immortality. Now he is close. The ritual is set.

The secrets buried at the heart of this conspiracy are older than the steel hull, older than the rivalry of nations, and far more dangerous than the iceberg-scattered waters of the North Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the clock counting down to catastrophe, Richard must face the darkness he has carried inside himself for years, a darkness that mirrors Azrael's more than he would like to admit.
