Talbot Uskevren
The second son of the Uskevren family fights a deadly battle within himself.

swordfighting skills and, unlike the others, practicing the art of acting. Now,
Talbot will put both of these talents to the test when a rival house comes
looking for blood. The only way for Talbot to survive against the Black
Brotherhood is to let the inner wolf loose, and the only way for him to live in
Selgaunt's society is to keep the wolf chained.

accident". Now, infected with lycanthropy he must learn to control his
urges and come to terms with what he has become.
