Nastal čas zradyKráľ musí zomrieť. Päť najnebezpečnejších klamárov v krajine má spolupracovať na jedinom cieli: zabiť kráľa Joona. Ten vládne nemilosrdnou rukou a zatiaľ čo bohatí prosperujú, chudobných a nevinných väznia, utláčajú alebo… predávajú. Teraz si po kráľa ide päť mečov. Každý z nich má dôvod ho zabiť – nájomný vrah hľadá vykúpenie, krásna vrahyňa túži po slobode, princ sa chce pomstiť, že ho poslali do vyhnanstva. Nikto z nich nedokáže odolať sladkému, mrazivému vábeniu pomsty. Dokážu sa dohodnúť na vražde. Dokážu sa dohodnúť na zrade. Piatim majstrom klamstiev, trikov a podvodov to však nestačí na to, aby vytvorili spojenectvo. No ak chcú prežiť, musia nájsť spôsob, ako si navzájom dôverovať… korunu však môže získať len jeden z nich. Nech vyhrá ten najlepší klamár.
