About this ebook

Murder, Politics and Intrigue. 


When the young half-goblin emperor Maia sought to learn who had set the bombs that killed his father and half-brothers, he turned to an obscure resident of his Court, a Prelate of Ulis and a Witness for the Dead.


Thara Celehar found the truth, though it did him no good to discover it. Now he lives in the City of Amalo, far from the Court though not exactly in exile. He has not escaped from politics, but his position gives him the ability to serve the common people of the city, which is his preference.


 He lives modestly, but his decency and fundamental honestly will not permit him to live quietly.

Spooky sleuth solves crimes while learning to cope with the social anxiety that unsurprisingly comes with being able to listen to dead people. Good stuff.

About the author

Katherine Addison is the pen name of Sarah Monette.

She grew up in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, one of the three secret cities of the Manhattan Project. She got her B.A. from Case Western Reserve University, her M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Despite being summa cum laude, none of her degrees is of the slightest use to her in either her day job or her writing, which she feels is an object lesson for us all.

She currently lives near Madison, Wisconsin.
