Publisher's Synopsis
Contracted assassin Lorrin Raffe gave up on fairytales a long time ago. Childish fancy had never gotten anyone anywhere, after all. Her thorns were brutally laid bare, for all to be pricked by. Now at the top of her game, she sets her sights on taking over not only the Ivory Blade, but all of the assassin rings in the city of Idun. With her boss on a suicide mission to plead with the Unseelie King, Lorrin downs a target without orders, and sets into motion a chain of disasters to tear apart the very fabric of Idun's strange history. The relentless Guard of Madir detective working on Lorrin's latest kill is also narrowing in on the truth. And her dangerous affection. But the cunning assassin is not the only one after a heart. And the Unseelie King will stop at nothing to crush hers.
Where a corrupt modern city harbours dark secrets and lost majik, Crescent City meets Six of Crows.
