Bookroo's summary

In the Nameless City, Kaidu and Rat face turmoil as political tensions rise. Kaidu discovers a formula for a lost weapon, a secret that could tip the balance of power. Sharing it with the Dao military would betray his bond with Rat, a native of the city. As the threat of war looms, Kaidu must navigate loyalty and duty to find a solution. Will he protect his friendship or risk everything for peace? The fate of the city hangs in the balance as alliances are tested and secrets unfold.

From the publisher

Kaidu and Rat have only just recovered from the assassination attempt on the General of All Blades when more chaos breaks loose in the Nameless City: deep conflicts within the Dao nation are making it impossible to find a political solution for the disputed territory of the City itself. To complicate things further, Kaidu is fairly certain he’s stumbled on a formula for the lost weapon of the mysterious founders of the City. . . . But sharing it with the Dao military would be a complete betrayal of his friendship with Rat. Can Kai find the right solution before the Dao find themselves at war?
