It's 461 CE and Skanda Gupta is at the helm of the still-mighty Gupta Empire. Brave, noble and already a legend in his lifetime, the emperor is fighting to save his legacy from wave after wave of invasion, intrigue and insurrection. The borders are restive. The palace is swirling with conspiracies. And the Huns are back. Into this steps Rohini - an enigmatic half-Hun runaway. For Skanda, she's a riddle he cannot crack. Is she an assassin? A spy? What follows is a roller coaster ride through the later years of a fast-crumbling once-mighty empire peppered with nail-biting politics and tragic love. What follows is a tale of tragic love, treachery, hard-won battles and the saga of a once-mighty empire. As ambition crosses sword with affection, Skanda and Rohini learn the ultimate lesson - as in war so in love, victory always comes at a price. A sequel to Nandini Sengupta's previous novel The King Within, The Poisoned Heart delves deep into the terrible bondage called love.
