Arimnestos expects to become a bronzesmith until war between Plataea and Thebes places him in the battle line beside his father and brother. Victory brings no security: betrayed after the fighting, he wakes from unconsciousness to discover that his inheritance and freedom have been taken and that he has been sold into slavery.
Escape begins a journey through the Greek cities and the western reaches of the Persian Empire as the Ionian Revolt gathers force. Arimnestos learns that violence is the one ability for which masters and commanders will pay, and his pursuit of freedom and revenge gradually turns the craftsman’s son into the man remembered as a killer of men.
