Djaga and Afua are linked, to one another and the two-faced god of their homeland: war and peace. Djaga has searched for peace, to no avail. Afua tells her that by embracing war with one final bout in the killing pits, both their demons will be excised.But Djaga has more to worry about than Afua's demons, or even her own. There is Nad n, a woman Djaga hopes to share a life with once she's left the pits for good. But how can she start a new life with Nad n when the horrific acts she committed still haunt her? Djaga must now decide whether to face her demons once and for all, knowing that if she does, she may lose the woman she loves forever.
