Es herrscht Krieg im Imperium - ein Krieg, von dem die meisten Planeten bislang verschont wurden. Zu verdanken haben sie dies dem aufopfernden Dienst der neun Nekromanten, die dem Imperator im Kampf gegen die Angriffe eines todbringenden Feindes helfen. Harrow Nonagesimus, die Erbin des Neunten Hauses, ist nun eine von ihnen - doch der Dienst, der von ihr verlangt wird, ist so ganz anders als erwartet. Und sie weiß nicht, ob sie ihn überleben wird ...

Gideon Nav reicht es. Sie hat genug von dem düsteren Planeten voller verknöcherter Nonnen, starrer Regeln und schwarzer Klamotten, auf dem sie aufgewachsen ist. Genug von einem Leben als Dienerin des Neunten Hauses. Vor allem aber hat sie genug von Harrowhark Nonagesimus, der Erbin eben jenes Hauses, die Gideon mit ihrer herrischen Art das Leben schwer macht. Also packt Gideon ihr Schwert und ihre Pornohefte ein, um endlich von diesem gottverlassenen Planeten zu verschwinden. Doch sie wird erwischt. Die Strafe für ihren Fluchtversuch ist unangenehm: Sie soll Harrowhark als Schwertmeisterin an den kaiserlichen Hof begleiten, wo diese, gemeinsam mit den Erben der anderen royalen Häuser, an einem Wettkampf auf Leben und Tod teilnimmt. Wenn sie den Untergang des Neunten Hauses und ihres Planeten verhindern wollen, müssen die beiden wohl oder übel zusammenarbeiten. Und das, obwohl sie einander auf den Tod nicht ausstehen können - oder?
