Her quiet routine ends when Sigmund Regret, a dashing assassin and her other lover, arrives days ahead of their yearly midwinter reunion. Keeping the two men from fighting becomes the least of her problems as the colony's uprising against the empire grows more dangerous. Her sheriff hides a past that pulls her back into a dangerous game of politics, and the authorities hunting her are closing in.

The story blends Austen-style manners with space opera adventure, in a universe where women hold the power. The volume also includes a free prequel, Lady Wyre's Regret.
