Agent of the Throne: Ashes and Oaths (The Horusian Wars)

An Inquisition audio drama.

When a mission goes badly wrong, Inquisitorial agent Ianthe and her associates are forced into an alliance with a dangerous and unscrupulous figure that could have dire consequences for them all.

Listen to it because:

It's the third act in John French's Scribe award-winning audio drama series, and it sees Ianthe make her most difficult decisions yet, in the name of her mission and her Inquisitorial masters.

The story:

Subterfuge and compromise walk hand in hand for an agent of the Throne. On the blighted world of Dustcorn, an assault on an Inquisitorial target goes badly awry, forcing Ianthe and her associates into a pact with an unscrupulous ally, the mysterious Zand. With her mission in tatters, Ianthe has little choice but to agree to Zand's terms, the assassination of a perfidious traitor. But nothing is simple where Zand is concerned, and Ianthe soon finds herself in a situation that will have far-reaching consequences for her and her team.
