A Parting of Blades (Freebooters Book 10)

The Freebooters have survived captivity, betrayal, and loss, but their fight is far from over. As they regroup, old wounds remain unhealed, and new conflicts threaten to tear them apart. Their pursuit of a dangerous enemy leads them deep into Raakonia, where shadows of the past collide with the dangers of the present. Meanwhile, Jael and Genna seek rest but find themselves drawn into a web of politics, vengeance, and fate. A single duel changes everything, setting Jael on a path he never expected; one that will test his convictions and force him to decide what kind of man he truly is. Far from them all, Varilla is trapped in a prison of the mind, where an ancient force waits, watching. She is given a choice: one that will either doom her or grant her the power to escape. But all power comes at a price. As tensions rise and alliances fray, the Freebooters must confront the cost of their war. Some will stay. Some will walk away. And some will never return. *This is the fourth book in the Freebooters Story Arc: Noose & Gallows
