A novella. Dust jacket by Lauren St. Onge (the Subterranean Press edition). Originally self-published.

“The Prisoner of Limnos”: a Penric & Desdemona novella in the World of the Five Gods. Book 6.

In this sequel novella to "Mira's Last Dance", Temple sorcerer Penric and the widow Nikys have reached safety in the duchy of Orbas when a secret letter from a friend brings frightening news: Nikys's mother has been taken hostage by her brother's enemies at the Cedonian imperial court, and confined in a precarious island sanctuary.

Their own romance still unresolved, Nikys, Penric, and of course Desdemona must infiltrate the hostile country once more, finding along the way that family relationships can be as unexpectedly challenging as any rescue scheme.
