Since meeting her in a MASH unit in Vietnam, Scott has loved Holly. The only problem? She’s married. When they reunite by chance years later, their attraction towards each other is still undeniable. But soon things become even more complicated. While at lunch with Scott, Holly spots a Cormorant wall plaque with a logo similar to one she saw at the scene of her husband’s alleged suicide. Then Scott learns that his best friend from Vietnam, whom he thought dead, is alive and working in Military Intelligence. Moreover, it appears that an unbreakable code that Scott and his friend developed has left the government’s control and is being used for purposes having nothing to do with protecting the United States. As Scott and Holly’s friendship rekindles into love, they uncover The Cormorant Club, a murder-for-hire group, and must expose the club and its leader before anyone else dies.

Seth Dickinson's epic fantasy series which began with the “literally breathtaking” (NPR) The Traitor Baru Cormorant, returns with the third book, The Tyrant Baru Cormorant. The hunt is over. After fifteen years of lies and sacrifice, Baru Cormorant has the power to destroy the Imperial Republic of Falcrest that she pretends to serve. The secret society called the Cancrioth is real, and Baru is among them. But the Cancrioth's weapon cannot distinguish the guilty from the innocent. If it escapes quarantine, the ancient hemorrhagic plague called the Kettling will kill hundreds of millions...not just in Falcrest, but all across the world. History will end in a black bloodstain. Is that justice? Is this really what Tain Hu hoped for when she sacrificed herself? Baru's enemies close in from all sides. Baru's own mind teeters on the edge of madness or shattering revelation. Now she must choose between genocidal revenge and a far more difficult path—a conspiracy of judges, kings, spies and immortals, puppeteering the world's riches and two great wars in a gambit for the ultimate prize. If Baru had absolute power over the Imperial Republic, she could force Falcrest to abandon its colonies and make right its crimes.
