Publisher's Synopsis
Will she break her oath-or him?
When Petal uses her magical powers to conceal a crime, her lecherous stepfather blackmails her into serving the empire's most feared security force. As an Inquisitor, Petal is sworn to uphold the Overfather's truth by any means necessary, and she learns how to extract information from the empire's enemies with skillful subterfuge and barbaric torture. Her latest prisoner is a treasonous mage with information she has been charged to obtain at any cost...he's also the man she once loved.
Cinder, a teacher turned revolutionary, frees political prisoners from the empire's overcrowded, filthy asylums, but this time he's the one in chains. He has lost everything-including his freedom-but he is determined to keep his secrets. When an enigmatic woman from his past begins unchaining his passion, surrender becomes a temptation-one he must resist if he wants to protect the Uprising from the thirsty blades of the Overfather's soldiers.
