The upstart matriarch of a fallen house, Kasia Niezik has sworn to destroy the elusive Crimson Court who assassinated her father. They are near immortal, wielding the spirits that once ended civilization a millennium ago, but she is a Reacher of the realm of Death. Their worst fear.
But to kill her deceitful foes, first she must find them.
Kasia travels to the capital, seeking allies either brave or foolish enough to help her infiltrate the Crimson elites. Whether spirit hunter, princess, or thief, though, everyone has a hidden agenda. And those with the widest smiles hold daggers behind their backs.
Step into a new world of fantasy intrigue where flintlock guns, risky magic, gaslamp technology, and spirits clash amid shadowy bids for power. Revenge is sweet, but at what cost?
