Summary
After a Long Interval, the Fifth Pass has begun. Fort Weyr experiences terrible losses and low morale under Weyrwoman Belia and Weyrleader J'vrex. When a gruesome accident claims Belia's life, Pern's other Weyrleaders task wingleader N'thal of Benden Weyr with investigating Fort Weyr, the Threadfall accident, and the Weyrleader's conduct.
He must ingratiate himself to Fort's riders and outwit Weyrleader J'vrex's suspicions, all before the next queen rises. His own Weyrleaders have designs for him, plans he has little interest in fulfilling. N'thal will do his duty to Benden and to Pern, but as far as he's concerned, courting an alluring but weak weyrwoman is not one of those duties.
