The Sabbat Worlds Crusade has moved on from Verghast after the apocalyptic events of Necropolis, leaving a shattered world in its wake. An influx of Imperial servants come to rebuild the infrastructure, Zale Linder among them. But something is wrong – the person who summoned him to Verghast doesn’t seem to exist. As Linder investigates, he is drawn into a web of secrets and lies where nothing is as it seems and no-one can be trusted. A short story from the Sabbat Worlds Anthology.
