At Ariella’s behest, Lincoln and Billy traveled to Israel, to the Hospitaller Commandery of Saint-Jean-d'Acre, and acquired the Cursed Armor of Sir Arnault the Pure. Magda can control the armor as if she were inside of it through the ear cuff Lincoln took after killing the Lich from Lynchburg. 

An agoraphobic trapped inside the Old Stone Church for years, can Magda possess the suit and make it walk out the front door?

Dante Oganov has a plan to acquire a shard of Callista’s soul and use it to take over her territory and free Lincoln’s son, Sam, from the vicious purgatory known as The Shelf. To accomplish this task, Lincoln needs to assemble a team that can do the impossible — where will he find the missing pieces for this do-or-die lineup?

Lincoln needs to acquire assets for the great caper of stealing a piece of Callista’s soul. But before he and the Old Stone Church crew assemble the pieces of that puzzle, Aunty Juanita told him that his bounty hunting days are over, and she tasked him with sharing that information with another legendary bounty hunter.

Speaking of bounty hunters, Icepick is obsessed with his mission of finding Dante Oganov for the secretive and powerful mage Vestinian, who wants Oganov — and Billy Middleton — dead as a doornail. Icepick takes a little trip to track down a clue.

We discuss all these questions and more on this DEEP CUTS.

Dante Oganov made a deal with Lincoln — help Dante blackmail Callista into giving him her turf, and Linc gets the ability to get his son, Sam, off the Shelf.

All this while Lincoln tries to hide his affair with Ariella, while Billy tries to hide the fact he’s training with Morgan Stone in Cordis, and Magda tries to hide her ever-growing drinking problem. If the Old Stone Church gang can’t trust each other, who can they trust?
