The Illvaettir War should be over. The threat posed by the Hunnic hordes should be finished. The Elves should be safe. Yet the dark sorcerer, Gansükh, rules Azar Payegan, a Hunnic Shahdom right next to the elves and he holds Darband, the major gateway through the Greater Caucasus Mountains. While he still lives, the elves cannot be safe. A very special assassin is sent. To kill him (before his daimon can prevent it), she must chose her time and get closer to him than anyone else. She must become his lover, his 'enemy within the gates'. She is very dangerous herself and she will face intrigue, powerful enemies, great danger and desperate battles. What she least expects is to fall in love with the man she has been sent to kill. The desperate defence of the elves and their allies continues with 'The Enemy Within'.
