About the book:
Inquisitor Lord Hieronymo Drake is dead. Much like the sector itself, the Macharian Inquisition is in disarray — but one Inquisitor has risen to the challenge of uniting them in Conclave. Beyond the countless heretics, daemonic influences and foul xenos lurks a threat that, left unchecked, could consume the whole sector. Can the conclave’s Inquisitors and acolytes put their shadow wars aside and work together to purge this threat before it threatens the entire Imperium?
