Return to the #1 New York Times bestselling world of Scadrial as its second era reaches a dramatic conclusion. Frontier lawman turned senator Waxillium Ladrian has been pursuing the shadowy organization known as the Set, which has kidnapped individuals with Allomantic powers, including his late uncle and sister. When Detective Marasi Colms and her partner Wayne discover stockpiled weapons destined for the Outer City of Bilming, they uncover a crucial lead. The escalating conflict between Elendel and the Outer Cities plays into the Set's hands, further complicating Wax and his wife Steris's efforts to expose corruption within the Senate. Wax stumbles upon a new explosive capable of immense destruction, realizing the Set may already possess it. An immortal kandra serving Harmony reveals that Bilming is under the influence of another god, Trell, worshipped by the Set. As Marasi is approached by offworlders with mysterious abilities claiming to protect Scadrial, Wax faces a pivotal choice: to mend his fraught relationship with God and embrace his role as the Sword of Harmony. If he fails to rise as the hero Scadrial desperately needs, the planet and its inhabitants may face catastrophic ruin.
