Sinta, Sorceress-Detective
Podrobnosti o e‑knize
Poison in the prince’s pork tenderloin claims the life of his hapless taster. A dagger to the heart slays the sleeping court sorcerer, tasked to investigate. With courtiers seemingly falling like ninepins, the prince’s chancellor turns to Mistress Sinta, a gifted freelance sorceress, to assume the role of detective.
With the aid of Sir Othir, her dashing man-at-arms, Sinta plunges into the murk of the princely court, where—while enjoying some tasty meals—she soon finds that spells alone will not uncover the answers she seeks.
Can our inquisitive young heroine crack the case before herself falling victim to the killer?

O autorovi
Sedigitus Swift is a historian by day and a pseudonymous fantasy author by night (as well as during eclipses or otherwise under cover of darkness). After toiling for twelve years at the U.S. Department of Justice, he became one of two in-house historians at Archelaus (because what upstart publishing house doesn’t need at least two?). When not diverting himself by writing Tales from Ondiran, an offbeat series of medieval fantasy novellas, he specializes in the perplexities of modern Central and Eastern Europe. No doubt he has other equally perverse interests, but we are not currently certain exactly what those might be.
